Chase Fox Ranch is one of two farms working in the city of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (Farm Valley W.B. Saul in Roxborough is another). Formerly owned by the Wistar family, the farm is located on Pine Road in the Fox Chase neighborhood of Northeast Philadelphia on the border with Montgomery County. Agriculture gradually became surrounded by the urban housing environment and purchased by the city in 1975. It is now managed as an educational farm by the School District of Philadelphia.
The farm was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005 under the old name of Stanley , a name he obtained when William Penn bestowed the land on Lord Stanley.
