Welcome to Buxton Conservancy. One of Brecknock Township's newest parks. A beautiful preserved space for all to enjoy nature at its best.
HISTORY:
In 2011, Philip and Jane Buxton passed away and bequeathed their 47 acre wooded property to Brecknock Township to be used by the Township for recreational purposes. Through the efforts of numerous volunteers the Buxton Conservancy is now open for all to enjoy. The Berks County Community Foundation and the Russell L. Hiller Charitable Trust Fund provided the grant awarded to the Township in December 2013 to support the development of this passive recreation area for the enjoyment of Governor Mifflin area residents.
Many hours were spent in the development of the Conservancy to bring this gem to life for the enjoyment of area residents for many years to come and the park was opened to the public on April 25, 2015. Many thanks to the Berks Conservancy, the Horse-Shoe Trail Conservancy, the Brecknock Township road crew, the Brecknock Township Supervisors and staff, the Recreation Board members, local residents and the many Boy Scouts from Troop 241, their families and friends. At the Conservancy opening, many of the Scouts from Troop 241 were honored for their hard work doing their Eagle Scout projects on the property. We sincerely thank the Scouts (and family) and Scoutmasters for their invaluable support of this project.
