Tinicum Township is a very special place. Covering just 19,723 acres and home to fewer than 5,000 people, the township is a rich but fragile landscape of cascading streams, scenic vistas, wide-open meadows, contiguous forest and deep, dark hollows.

During the past two decades, the Tinicum Conservancy, a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, has partnered with conservation-minded landowners, concerned citizens and local government to preserve almost 100 properties and approximately 4,000 acres or 5½ square miles of the township. This is a remarkable achievement, not only in Bucks County, but also in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

The Conservancy’s success has been as much a story of people as it has been about the land. The Conservancy has been blessed with a group of landowners, volunteers, scientists and donors who share our common vision and have contributed to our accomplishments.
