Outdoors Online – Restoring Crum Creek

Want to learn how we’re improving water quality and restoring ecosystems? 

Join Preserve Manager Mike Coll for an exciting webinar on the innovative deer enclosure fence at Hildacy Preserve and how it’s enhancing the water quality of Crum Creek, a vital source of drinking water. Thanks to funding from AQUA, this project focuses on revitalizing the floodplain to improve the health of our water resources. 

Discover how this initiative is creating a lush, native planting area that slows and absorbs water runoff, reducing harmful erosion and sedimentation. The exclosure fence also helps improve water quality by allowing native leaves to naturally filter the creek, supporting macroinvertebrates that are essential for clean water. 

But that’s not all! Learn how this project is also sequestering carbon, providing new habitats for floodplain species, and supporting migrating wildlife. Plus, it’s boosting native plant diversity, which is crucial for pollinators and other vital insects. 

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to learn how ecological restoration is benefiting both the environment and our water supply.
