Tree Planting along Mill Creek – Riparian Buffer and Reforestation – 2023

Along Black Ditch, a tributary of Mill Creek in Levittown, Bristol Township PA we are installing a riparian buffer to help lessen storm water. We will be removing invasive shrubs then planting native trees and native berrying shrubs to spread the good native plants by feeding birds.

3 acres , 200 trees, 50 shrubs
