Cleaner air. Quieter neighborhoods. Healthier lives.
Our Mission
A group of Haverford Township residents came together in January 2026 to form Quiet Clean Haverford.
Our mission is to educate the community, explore policy options, and help develop a timetable for phasing out gas-powered leaf blowers.
We are following the example of other communities that have successfully enacted similar bans, including Lower Merion Township, so that Haverford Township residents can enjoy cleaner air, quieter neighborhoods, and healthier lives.
