Earth Week Volunteers Help Restore Red Clay Creek

800 450 Stroud Water Research Center

Over three days during Earth Week, about 30 volunteers gathered along Red Clay Creek in southeastern Pennsylvania to help Stroud Water Research Center plant trees for healthy streams.

The planting connects two previous plantings that are part of the ongoing restoration of Red Clay Creek. Volunteers planted more than 15 species of trees and shrubs to support wildlife and clean water.

Thanks to all the volunteers from Constellation Energy, Dansko, LINKBANK, Resolution Life, Wilmington Charter School of Wilmington, and the community who made the day a success!
