Great Progress this Past Year!!!!

Upper Pittsgrove has ow preserved 11,891 acres of farmland - 501 acres more than a year ago. There are currently nine more farms awaiting settlement for another 340 acres.

Farms and their acres to be preserved include: Dickinson (26), Hamilton (38), Kessel (50), Manchester (25), Mercer (35), Spokony (20), Stimpson (54), Valentine (52) and Zeck (40).

Upper Pittsgrove continues to be number one out of 565 municipalities in the State for farmland preservation. And, because of our success, we have lower taxes, less traffic and pollution, and plenty of open space for recreation and a quality of life other towns can only envy.
