What’s in the Strawberry Mansion Reservoir?

June 21 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

The Strawberry Mansion Reservoir has been here for centuries, let’s see what’s inside! Join Bria from Audubon Mid-Atlantic in observing this aquatic ecosystem as the seasons change. Try our rotating activities of testing water chemistry, exploring micro-invertebrates, macroinvertebrate sampling during warmer weather, and observing the waterfowl that visit throughout the year (3 to 4 activities per event). This community science will be collected and utilized for future management. Kid-friendly activities are available, no registration required! This event is designed for small groups and walk-ins; for larger groups, book a private trip here.

Lastly, learn about the history of the reservoir and its important connection to the people of the Strawberry Mansion neighborhood in our Visitor Center. From providing drinking water to the community, to offering acres of green space for all to enjoy.
