The Meadows Foundation welcomes you

The Meadows Foundation is a group of volunteers who care for 4 historic homesteads that are on the State and National Registries of Historic Places.  We strive to preserve, restore, steward and provide programming for historic sites in the Somerset section of Franklin Township, NJ for the education, recreation and interest of current and future generations.

Preserving Franklin Township’s Rich Heritage

The Meadows Foundation volunteers believe in the value of saving our nation’s past and serve as stewards of these priceless historic homes. All the properties are listed on the state and national historic registers. You are invited to learn more about each property by clicking on “Houses.” They are an important part of Franklin Township’s past and its identity today. We preserve these homes and provide programming so that you, and our entire community, can enjoy, understand and treasure these properties for generations to come.
