Spring Adopt-a-Tree Treeplanting Event

Saturday, April 27th, 10:30am - 12:00pm

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

Spring is a wonderful time to plant trees, just as the preserve is coming back to life. Planting trees helps combat climate change and maintain our local water supply, as trees keep excess stormwater runoff from heading to the Schuylkill River watershed.

Spend the morning with us at Riverbend enjoying:

  • Planting trees and learning about the trees that call Riverbend home

  • Playing tree-tastic games

  • Filling out an adoption certificate for the tree you planted

  • And participating in the Philadelphia City Nature Challenge BioBlitz!

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

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 choose the price you wish to pay for this event. In doing so, you help make environmental education accessible to ALL children, regardless of their family's financial situation.

The City Nature Challenge (CNC) is a 4-day bioblitz where cities around the world compete to see who can record the most wildlife. Winners are ranked by the total number of observations, the number of species as well as the number of people making observations. Besides being a fun challenge, this is also a great way to engage people in citizen science and help document the biodiversity of our urban areas.

 

 

Thank you to our corporate partners for their support!
