Did you know that pollinators are responsible for

Did you know that pollinators are responsible for bringing us one out of every 3 bites of food. More than 200,000 species of pollinators are critical to the stability of our food supply.

To honor and appreciate pollinators, check out this insect-pollinated recipe and more by downloading the Pollinator Friendly Cookbook at www.pollinator.org/pollinated-food to create a delicious meal.

Have you seen the SRG pollinator garden in Riverfr

Have you seen the SRG pollinator garden in Riverfront Park? All of the plants in this garden are native to Pennsylvania.

Native plants support local pollinator species, use less water than ornamental plant species, do not require pesticides, and promote a healthy ecosystem.

If you are looking to start your own pollinator garden, check out www.nwf.org/NativePlantFinder/ and

We want to thank the Boy Scout group who came out

We want to thank the Boy Scout group who came out on Saturday to help us install fencing on the #SchuylkillRiverTrail west of Route 724 in Ridgewood. The group also helped do maintenance work in the Angstadt Area. THANK YOU!!!!!

Happy Pollinator Week!! Pollinator Week was initi

Happy Pollinator Week!!

Pollinator Week was initiated and is managed by Pollinator Partnership, and fourteen years ago the U.S. Senate’s unanimous approval and designation of a week in June as “National Pollinator Week” marked a necessary step toward addressing the urgent issue of declining pollinator populations. Pollinator Week has now grown into an international celebration, promoting the valuable ecosystem services provided by bees, birds, butterflies, bats and beetles.

Visit pollinator.org and check back in with us each day this week to learn more about pollinators and what you can do to help. #PollinatorWeek

⚠️TRAIL ALERT⚠️🚧 #SchuylkillRiverTrail

⚠️TRAIL ALERT⚠️🚧 #SchuylkillRiverTrail users, including hikers and bicyclists, are reminded to NOT ❌ use private property to access the trail. A property owner in Union Township, between the trail and PA Route 724 east of Birdsboro, has asked Schuylkill River Greenways to inform trail users that this driveway is private property. The driveway passes very close to two homes and is NOT open to the public. SRG asks all trail users to please respect the privacy rights of our neighbors.

The Schuylkill River Trail near Monocacy Station in Berks County is CLOSED for the construction of the Richard P. Whittaker, M.D. Memorial Bridge. Construction is expected to be complete by August or September. For more details about this project and closure, visit schuylkillriver.org (CLICK LINK IN BIO)
