This parcel has the potential for high-density development in the borough, which will be followed by the permanent loss of multiple nearby dirt roads, increased impact on the nearby Deep Brook watershed, and an increase in education and other tax burdens for Newtown residents. Preservation of the Deep Brook Farm under the NFA will mitigate all of these potential outcomes. We’re calling on you to help make this happen.

To continue to preserve the rural character of Newtown for generations to come we are collecting donations from local residents who support the preservation of this wildlife habitat and desire to expand the surrounding green corridor of open spaces. If we are able to raise the funds to purchase the Deep Brook Farm, this land will never be developed; it will remain protected open space with public access in perpetuity.
