Summary
In 2001, Moorestown Township bought 130 acres known as the Benner Farm to protect it from the development boom that was transforming the rural landscape along both sides of Westfield Road. Twenty years later, the grassroots nonprofit Save the Environment of Moorestown<https://www.stemonline.org/> (STEM) is leading an effort to transform the Burlington County site, now called Swede Run Fields<https://www.stemonline.org/swederun.html>, into a destination for butterflies, birds, bees, other pollinators — and people. All of which are species under significant stress and in need of safe and nurturing places.
