Save the 175 year-old Henry Family Farm
Save Andy’s Family Farm
For 175 years, the Henry family’s farm at 1234 South River Road has been part of Cranbury, NJ. Generations have worked the land, raised livestock, and preserved a piece of the Garden State’s heritage.
Now, the Township wants to erase it. Without warning, officials voted to use eminent domain to take Andy Henry’s farm for a multi-family housing project. Andy never wanted to sell. Developers tried, and he refused. Because you don’t sell your family’s roots.
This isn’t just about one man’s property—it’s about human respect. Families should not be forced off their land by government decree.
We are fighting back. With your help, Andy won’t stand alone.
Together, we can protect Andy’s farm, defend property rights, and show Cranbury that true respect means preserving families and their heritage.

Subject: Save the Henry Family Farm
Dear [Name],
I am writing today to voice support for Mr. Andy Henry and his desire to preserve the farm that has been in his family since 1850.
Eminent Domain is an act of force perpetrated against peaceful persons. The initiation of violence or theft decreases happiness, harmony, and prosperity, always, and there is no special exception for government officials to rightly diminish these goods.
I write asking that you please cease attempts to take the Henry family farm in part or whole, and act in a manner that serves and protects rather than persecutes citizens you are tasked with representing.
I urge you to explore the other options available to fulfill the requirements of the state mandate, and take time to listen thoughtfully to the wishes of property owners and concerned members of the Cranbury community, and all who seek nonviolent ways to advance human flourishing.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
[YOUR NAME]
