PRESERVATION OF MEADOW FARM
Penllyn, PA

This imaginative subdivision devised by the Lands Trust created strong economic incentives encouraging each of the new Owners to increase capital contributions toward resuscitation of the buildings and in turn the preservation of rural open space.

In retrospect, the experimental concept of uniting economic and tax benefits with open space preservation measures yielded results which were successful beyond expectation.
