How You Can Help

• Encourage your municipal officials to protect the environmentally sensitive lands identified in local open space plans.
• Get dirty! Participate in one of the creek cleanups held throughout the Greenway.
• Stand up for the creek at municipal meetings when your commissioners and council members are discussing stormwater management.
• Enjoy one of the many annual events that take place along the Greenway such as sheep shearing, Maple Sugar Day, and Applefest at Fox Chase Farm.

• Make your yard friendlier for wildlife by planting native trees, shrubs and wildflowers. Audubon Pennsylvania's "Audubon At Home" program can help.
• Minimize or eliminate your use of pesticides, herbicides, and fertilizers.
• Control (or eliminate) aggressive non-native plants infesting your garden.
• Reduce the paving on your property to allow rainwater to percolate into the soil, and install rain barrels on your downspouts.
• If you have a stream on your property, allow an unmowed strip between your lawn and the stream.
