Davis Tract preserved in Chadds Ford

Published Friday, April 18, 2025

The Davis Tract, a 16-acre property that was once the home of N.C. Wyeth, is now preserved and will become the headquarters for the North American Land Trust (NALT), which now owns the property. Chadds Ford Township will hold the permanent conservation easement. In addition to N.C. Wyeth, the property was later owned by Walter and Shirley Winther, who owned the former Chadds Ford Gallery. It was also the site of the Continental Army’s defensive line during the Battle of Brandywine in 1777. NALT had to raise more than $3 million to acquire the land. Read more at Chadds Ford Live.
