Fall Adopt-a-Tree Tree Planting Event

Join us with your family to adopt and plant trees at Riverbend.

Fall is a wonderful time to plant trees just before it turns colder in the winter months. Planting trees at the preserve helps to provide habitat to local wildlife, combat climate change and helps to maintain our local water supply as the trees we plant keep runoff from heading to the Schuylkill River watershed.

This program is part of Philadelphia STEM Equity Week. Riverbend Environmental Education Center is proud to partner with the Philadelphia STEM Equity Collective (PSEC), which aims to unite educators, students, professionals, community leaders, and families in addressing systemic barriers and promoting equitable access to STEM fields and showcasing the vibrant STEM programs Philadelphia has to offer.

Registration is required as spaces are limited. This event is open to all ages. Please bring your own water and work gloves to the event.

This is a Riverbend PAY WHAT YOU WISH Event:

The true cost to Riverbend to offer this educational event to the public is $35 per family. We recognize that for some families, this is unaffordable. Therefore, we invite you to pay any amount of your own choosing to attend this event. In doing so, you help make environmental education accessible to ALL children, regardless of their family's financial situation.
