SUMMARY:Beech Leaf Disease Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Event Details\n\nOctober 20th – Beech Leaf Disease Walking Tour\, Tuesday\, 4:30 PM to 5:30 PM \nIn summer 2024\, beech leaf disease (BLD) was discovered in American beech trees along the northern edge of the Pennypack Preserve. In 2025\, Pennypack Trust began hosting a research team from Bartlett Tree Research Laboratories to study different methods—including silvicultural thinning and chemical injections—for slowing the progression of BLD and preserving one of our most heavily American beech-dominated forest tracts. Now that the experimental treatments have been completed\, researchers will monitor their effects on the trees over the next five years. Join Dr. Matthew Borden\, plant pathologist at Bartlett Tree Research Laboratories\, to learn about BLD\, the research conducted at Pennypack\, and the next steps in the study. Visit pennypacktrust.org/bld to learn more. \nRegister Here: https://secure.qgiv.com/for/volinteres/event/october20th-bld/

SUMMARY:Priority Hoarding: A Retrospectacle
DESCRIPTION:“Where our baggage is yours!” \nWelcome to the Bearded Ladies’ Hairport\, an interactive installation & performance series built on 16-years of accumulated baggage from a queer cabaret company devoted to art\, care\, mess\, and community. While you’re waiting for a flight that may never take off\, unpack your baggage and rifle through some of ours. You may recognize something as your own\, or find something you never knew you were carrying. \nMade for anyone who has ever lost a bag\, gotten stuck\, or missed a (metaphoric) flight\, this trans(formational) installation asks: how do you know it’s time to move on when you don’t know where you’re going? \nProduced by The Bearded Ladies Cabaret\nPart of FringeArt’s 2026 Festival & Collective Futures \nInstallation on view September 10-December 20\, 2026\nat The Hairport | 444 N 3rd Street\, Philadelphia PA 19123 \nInstallation hours:\nWednesday\, Thursday & Friday 4-9PM | Last timed entry at 8:15PM\nSaturday & Sunday 11AM-3PM| Last timed entry at 2:15PM \nLive events at The Hairport | Saturdays at 8PM \nThe Hairport is an interactive\, immersive installation filled with costumes\, cardboard props\, and other ephemera from the Bearded Ladies Cabaret’s 16-year performance history. Visitors will make their way through a sprawling multi-room space made to look like a fantastical\, metaphorical “airport”. Visitors will be invited to interact with components of the installation and may encounter docents in guiding roles. The experience will culminate in a “lounge” space full of “Bearded baggage” which will also serve as the performance site for the Now Hoarding: In-Flight Entertainment live event series. \nIt will take visitors approximately 60-75 minutes to view the entirety of the Priority Hoarding installation. Groups of 6 will enter the installation\, at 15-minute timed entry intervals. An opportunity to ride a Surrey bike is offered but not required.

SUMMARY:Walking the Schuylkill – John Brady Photography
DESCRIPTION:William Penn placed the city where it is because of the Schuylkill River\, guaranteeing the city and the river a prominent place in American history. Over time\, the Schuylkill has served the city and its industry\, first with a canal system and later with railroads and highways in the river’s flood plain. Factories and mills were built along its full length. Industry radically changed the river. Along with bringing farm products and coal to the city. The Schuylkill River provided drinking water. These purposes often collided; eventually drinking water won out. The environmental movement changed the river as radically as the industrial age had. These changes\, and contemporary uses\, leave imprints. “Walking the Schuylkill” intends to capture and highlight those marks\, illustrating the character of the modern Schuylkill River.

SUMMARY:Valley Talk - Into the Weeds: Foraging for Invasive Plants in Pennsylvania with Tama Matsuoka Wong\, presented by Univest Finanical
DESCRIPTION:In person at the Valley Green Inn or online on Zoom\nMany a gardener\, flower lover\, or backyard farmer hates that most dreaded of garden chores: getting rid of weeds. Tama Matsuoka Wong offers a new approach to many plants deemed undesirable: manage them\, turn them into delicious food\, teas\, structures….in other words reap their abundance. A self-described “failed” gardener turned garden contrarian\, she looks to cues as to what plants grow wild naturally in situ\, and\, besides that\, sells many pounds of invasive weeds to markets and chefs. On a more personal level\, she will share with you the “why” of her latest book “Into the Weeds:” why weeds sit at the juncture of our food\, environment and health\, and how to use the most common weeds that grow around you.\nTama Matsuoka Wong is a forager\, weed eater\, wild farmer\, and meadow doctor. She is the author of the backyard field guide and cookbook Foraged Flavor\, nominated for a James Beard award in 2013\, followed by Scraps\, Wilt & Weeds with Chef Mads Refslund (winner of IACP award for Food Matters) and Into the Weeds: How to Garden Like a Forager.\nPurchase a book from Tama\, here.\nAfter graduating from Harvard Law School and serving more than 25 years as a financial services lawyer in Tokyo\, New York and Hong Kong\, she returned with her family to Hunterdon County New Jersey and rediscovered her passion for the natural world. She has spoken at NDAL\, Woody Plants Conference\, Philadelphia Horticultural Society\, garden clubs and master gardens and been featured in WSJ\, NYT\, Gardenista\, Garden and Gun\, Modern Farmer\, Martha Stewart\, among others.\nRegister here to attend in-person at the Valley Green Inn.\nRegister here to attend online on Zoom.\nThank you to our presenting sponsor\, Univest Financial!

SUMMARY:Walking the Schuylkill – John Brady Photography
DESCRIPTION:William Penn placed the city where it is because of the Schuylkill River\, guaranteeing the city and the river a prominent place in American history. Over time\, the Schuylkill has served the city and its industry\, first with a canal system and later with railroads and highways in the river’s flood plain. Factories and mills were built along its full length. Industry radically changed the river. Along with bringing farm products and coal to the city. The Schuylkill River provided drinking water. These purposes often collided; eventually drinking water won out. The environmental movement changed the river as radically as the industrial age had. These changes\, and contemporary uses\, leave imprints. “Walking the Schuylkill” intends to capture and highlight those marks\, illustrating the character of the modern Schuylkill River.

SUMMARY:Priority Hoarding: A Retrospectacle
DESCRIPTION:“Where our baggage is yours!” \nWelcome to the Bearded Ladies’ Hairport\, an interactive installation & performance series built on 16-years of accumulated baggage from a queer cabaret company devoted to art\, care\, mess\, and community. While you’re waiting for a flight that may never take off\, unpack your baggage and rifle through some of ours. You may recognize something as your own\, or find something you never knew you were carrying. \nMade for anyone who has ever lost a bag\, gotten stuck\, or missed a (metaphoric) flight\, this trans(formational) installation asks: how do you know it’s time to move on when you don’t know where you’re going? \nProduced by The Bearded Ladies Cabaret\nPart of FringeArt’s 2026 Festival & Collective Futures \nInstallation on view September 10-December 20\, 2026\nat The Hairport | 444 N 3rd Street\, Philadelphia PA 19123 \nInstallation hours:\nWednesday\, Thursday & Friday 4-9PM | Last timed entry at 8:15PM\nSaturday & Sunday 11AM-3PM| Last timed entry at 2:15PM \nLive events at The Hairport | Saturdays at 8PM \nThe Hairport is an interactive\, immersive installation filled with costumes\, cardboard props\, and other ephemera from the Bearded Ladies Cabaret’s 16-year performance history. Visitors will make their way through a sprawling multi-room space made to look like a fantastical\, metaphorical “airport”. Visitors will be invited to interact with components of the installation and may encounter docents in guiding roles. The experience will culminate in a “lounge” space full of “Bearded baggage” which will also serve as the performance site for the Now Hoarding: In-Flight Entertainment live event series. \nIt will take visitors approximately 60-75 minutes to view the entirety of the Priority Hoarding installation. Groups of 6 will enter the installation\, at 15-minute timed entry intervals. An opportunity to ride a Surrey bike is offered but not required.
