About Butterworth Connections
Butterworth Connections is a private group for residents of the Butterworth Farms neighborhood of Morristown, NJ, designed to bring neighbors together through a variety of activities for all ages. What began over 30 years ago as a babysitting co-op has evolved into a vibrant organization that offers an affordable way to stay connected, engaged, and involved in our community. Members enjoy benefits such as participation in clubs like the Book Club and Movie Club, and a password-protected member-only calendar of annual neighborhood events.
