But, if you have purchased a property in Oley Township, you may be eligible for a tax credit through the National Park Service. Since the entire township has been designated an historic district, you would most likely qualify. Go to the National Park Service website for details on how to apply. I encourage you to become a member of HBFF of PA to get more information about historic barns through our semi-annual newsletter, The Forebay Post. Sheila Miller, President Merry,

Could you please point us in the right direction for any grants that may have been established to preserve and protect this barn. This would be a factor in purchasing the property. We want it preserved....... Thank you Merry We are very interested in buying a small farm with a very

I would like to purchase a copy of that tour if still available. Thank you. I attended the conference last year but was unable to participate in the Saturday Barn tour.
