Volunteer Service In Houston Meadow
August 5, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm
Meeting at the Houston Playgound
Over the past two years, FOW has worked with Philadelphia Parks & Recreation to plant hundreds of native trees and shrubs in the wooded ravine of Houston Meadow. These plants not only provide necessary habitat to our wildlife, but also helps with erosion control. On this Saturday, we’ll be completing the important task of maintaining these plantings by removing invasive vines, fixing deer browse protection fencing, and more!
No experience is needed. We provide gloves, tools and instruction – you just need to show up! Volunteer service Days are excellent, easy ways to help us take care of Wissahickon Valley Park. Be sure to wear sturdy footwear and long pants, and bring a water bottle with you. Detailed information and the specific meeting location will be sent by email the day before the event.
