Craft Show at the Farm and Utility Delays on Bustleton Pike

Feasterville Trevose, PA · May 2, 2026

Happy Saturday — the sun is out for the annual craft show at Playwicki Farm, though you'll want to mind the utility work slowing down Bustleton Pike this morning.

📰 The Lead

The transformation of Russell Elliot Memorial Park takes a major step forward today as volunteers and township crews begin installing the new inclusive playground equipment. This project, funded through a combination of state grants and local fundraising, aims to create a space where children of all abilities can play side-by-side. Beyond the slides and swings, the plan includes sensory-rich play areas and improved rubberized surfacing designed for mobility devices. Township officials expect the work to wrap up by early next week, with a formal ribbon-cutting scheduled for later this month. It’s a significant win for the neighborhood, turning a dated facility into a modern community hub that reflects the growing diversity of our local families and ensures every child has a place to play.

While the grand ballroom is a local favorite, the original stone structure served as a vital meeting point for travelers and militia during the Revolutionary War.
