About Us
Through strategic partnerships, fundraising, and stakeholder engagement, the Conservancy works to protect and enhance these vital community assets. Its efforts include cultivating a strong donor network, identifying and advancing priority projects, securing grants and sponsorships, and collaborating with organizations and community leaders.
​
Looking ahead, the future of Powell Farm and the Cranberry Greenway Plan is envisioned as one rooted in conservation, stewardship, and long-term resilience. A future where agricultural demonstrations support sustainable farming practices, soil health, crop diversity, and farm-to-table innovation, and a connected system of trails and greenways fosters not only physical access but also social and psychological connections throughout the community.
​
By advancing this vision, the Cranberry Conservancy has a unique opportunity to reinforce Cranberry Township's character and values by protecting open space, honoring its agricultural heritage, and intentionally shaping a connected, resilient community for the future.
