Our farmhouse was built in 1860 and we are only the fourth family to live here! In the past century and a half, this land was used as a willow and flax farm as well as a chicken farm. The property is on Lenni-Lenape land, and our hope is to bring back more of the native plants that have been used (and continue to be used) as food and medicine.

Welcome to For Tomorrow Farms, our creekside permaculture farm and food forest!
This site is still being planned and developed, but our mission is to create a productive and healing space in nature for individuals to connect with the environment, try fresh home-grown foods, and hang out with friendly farm animals. We are currently growing rare and heirloom fruits, veggies, and herbs (ask us what we’re growing!) in the backyard of our 1860s farmhouse, and our animals help with natural land maintenance and fertilization. Come say hi to the goats, take a dip in the creek, and explore our 10 acres of exotic wetlands!
If you’re looking for a longer hike, we are also surrounded by plenty of gorgeous parks and trails, which are only a short drive away. This is the ideal location for a peaceful getaway just an hour outside center city Philadelphia.
Plus, make sure to keep checking back as we continue to grow and improve our property. A few projects we’re looking forward to are converting one of the old farm sheds into a tiny guest house and adding a shower to our indoor campsite bathroom!
We hope you’ll enjoy your stay here! Thanks for being a part of our journey.
Stayed here for a weekend with a group of 5 adults at Campsite #1. This site was behind an old barn near a creek, and felt quite secluded for being so close to the rest of the neighborhood. It was an easy short walk to the bathroom, which was nicely situated at the back of the main house. The site was on the small side, with just enough room for 3 tents and the picnic table and fire chiminea. It definitely felt cozy, not cramped. The hosts were very nice and the goats were very friendly!
Super cool place. Tucked away behind a rustic barn with the creek sounds nearby. We had great weather so we were able to sleep with our screens open and see the strars. The goods were absolutely adorable as well. The only thing that I would recommend at all is if the camp area near the barn had a little more space to spread out that would be nice but definitely loved it.
