Treasure Hunting at Playwicki Farm and Weekend Road Alerts
Feasterville Trevose, PA · April 25, 2026
Good morning — if you’re heading out early, you’ll notice the breeze has a bit of a bite, but the sun is doing its best to keep things comfortable for the flea market crowds. It’s a big day for local bargain hunters, and while the coffee is hot, the traffic on Street Road is already starting to simmer.
📰 The Lead
The gates at Playwicki Farm are swinging open this morning for the annual Spring Flea Market and Craft Show, an event that has evolved from a simple yard sale into a massive community gathering. Running from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM, the fields are expected to host over 100 vendors ranging from local artisans to neighbors clearing out their attics.
For residents, this isn't just about finding a vintage lamp or a handmade wreath; it’s a vital fundraiser for the Playwicki Farm Foundation. The proceeds from vendor fees go directly toward the ongoing restoration of the farmhouse and the maintenance of the walking trails we all use. If you’re planning to attend, try to approach from the Chinquapin Road side to avoid the inevitable bottleneck at the main entrance on Street Road. Expect a heavy presence from our local fire police helping to navigate the grass parking lots, which are still a bit soft from earlier week showers.
🏙️ Local Pulse
Street Road Lane Restrictions Near Philmont PennDOT has scheduled utility inspections on the bridge over the rail lines today. Expect alternating single-lane traffic between Philmont Avenue and Bustleton Pike through 3:00 PM. Local police suggest using County Line Road as an alternative to avoid the 15-minute crawl.
Library Launches "Library of Things" Collection The Lower Southampton Library is expanding beyond books starting this morning. Residents can now check out high-quality telescopes, metal detectors, and even cake pans. It’s a smart move to reduce consumer waste and let neighbors "try before they buy" on expensive hobby gear.
Neshaminy High Baseball Hosts Home Doubleheader The varsity squad takes the field at 10:00 AM today for a back-to-back matchup. It’s a great chance to support local athletes without a cover charge. The concession stand will be open, and the bleachers are expected to be packed with alumni for the mid-season rally.
🌤️ Today's Outlook
- A crisp start gives way to a bright, pleasant afternoon with a high of 64°F. Expect clear skies through the evening, though temperatures will dip quickly into the mid-40s after sunset, so keep a jacket handy if you're heading out for dinner.

📸 Spotlight & Story
- Lower Southampton Athletic Association (LSAA)
- For over 60 years, the LSAA has been the heartbeat of youth sports in our neighborhood. While many towns have moved toward hyper-competitive travel leagues, the LSAA maintains a strong focus on the "intramural" spirit, ensuring every kid in the township gets a chance to swing a bat or kick a ball. Did you know the association is entirely volunteer-run? From the coaches to the people painting the lines on the grass at Russell Elliot, it’s a massive logistical feat powered by local parents. On a Saturday like today, you can see the results in real-time: hundreds of families gathered at the fields, continuing a tradition that has spanned three generations of residents.
