High Rocks Parknership
A group of mission-aligned non-profit and government organizations is coming together in this special parknership to restore the habitat in this favorite Bucks County destination. The Tinicum Conservancy is leading the project, in close partnership with the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation of Natural Resources, Bucks County Parks & Recreation, Eastern Pennsylvania Alliance of Climbers and the Tohickon Watershed Association. We believe that combining resources and leveraging our expertise into a large, visible project is the best way to make a meaningful impact.
This special “High Rocks Parknership” effort is made possible by support from the Lower Delaware Wild & Scenic Management Council, as funded by the National Park Service. For information about the broader efforts of LDWS throughout this region of the Delaware Valley, visit www.lowerdelawarewildandscenic.org
OVERVIEW
Join us this fall for any or all of ten active workshops at beautiful High Rocks Vista, a natural gem of Bucks County overlooking the Tohickon Creek, for an exciting project to restore life-sustaining native ecosystems in two special parks. Nestled within both Tohickon Valley Park and Ralph Stover State Park, this area draws thousands of visitors each year to hike, climb, kayak, bird-watch and more.
WHAT ARE WE DOING?
Over 10 Learning Workshop sessions, volunteers will progress through different skill-building activities to improve the habitat for native plant and animal species and to prevent damaging erosion. Working together we will learn to identify and properly remove invasive plant species, select and plant life-supporting native understory plants, and set up structures to protect these plants from deer until the plants are established and can survive and thrive without protection. Volunteers will work alongside experts and will gain valuable knowledge that can then also be applied to personal properties or other public spaces. This area is highly visible to the public and experiences heavy foot traffic, which makes it a great spot to showcase how beautiful, vibrant, and interesting a healthy native ecosystem looks.
Interested volunteers are welcomed to join us for one, several,or even all of the sessions.

Ecological Stewardship Learning Workshop
An Invitation for 2026 Stewardship Volunteers & Learners
Join us this spring along the beautiful Tinicum Creek to begin our second phase of ecological restoration Working Learnshops. On our first day at the camp, we will be walking the entire beautiful creekside in search of an invasive plant called Poison hemlock (yes, the poison hemlock of Socrates fame!). You will learn how to identify this invasive and poisonous plant, learn about safe handling and management techniques, and help mark it locations for future treatment.
You (and any interested youngsters aged 10+) are invited to join us for any or all of the sessions in our upcoming series of Working Learnshops to restore ecosystems in a riparian floodplain along beautiful Tinicum Creek.
WHAT ARE WE DOING?
A chance to learn, work, and commune, these working learnshop sessions will teach vital understanding and skills including remediating invasive plant species in preparation for restoring a degraded ecosystem to a more diverse, native one – skills that can be used on your very own property! Focused on a demonstration-restoration area along Tinicum Creek within a permanently protected 60-acre campground, we began in 2025 by cutting invasive shrubs and pulling invasive Japanese stiltgrass by the handful and by the truckload! The areas cleared of these invasive plants will become our palette for restoration planting sites and learning workshops this spring, summer and fall. These demonstration-restoration areas are just the beginning of a multi-year, multi-property effort we’re planning to restore and renew healthy native ecology along and within Tinicum Creek.
STAY FOR LUNCH!
Please bring your lunch if you’d like and join us to rest, eat, connect and learn after we’re done working. Camp Galil has indoor plumbing. There may be baked goods… please feel free to bring a treat to share. Hopefully, Mother Nature will bring us some much-needed lovely spring weather!
WHEN?
Every other Tuesday and Saturday, from March to June! (unless otherwise rescheduled)

Earth Month Planting Blitz at our Streamside Restoration
For six days in late April, we invite any interested area residents to help us plant over 100 life-supporting native trees & shrubs along Tinicum Creek as part of a major habitat restoration project. Please join us in this magnificent sylvan setting to help realize the revitalizing vision for this section of the stream begun by last summer’s campers and refined and developed since by native ecological landscape architect David Hughes of Weatherwood Design.
Using a beautiful and diverse native planting plan designed specifically for this project area, this series of learning workshops represents the first of several stages of native plantings for this restoration project. We have some tools, gloves, and equipment for participants to borrow, but if you have a spade shovel, gloves, wire cutters, and/or mallet of your own, please bring them
Some detail…
A chance to learn, work, and commune, these working learnshop sessions will teach vital understanding and skills to landscape and build habitat for wildlife and good health, all of which you could apply on your own property. Sessions will incorporate learning and action to build your understanding of the characteristics, benefits and growing preferences of diverse native plants, along with instruction and opportunity to plant them to flourish. If time allows, we may also delve into identifying and remediating stubborn invasive plant species that often crowd out the native plants which support the living creatures needed by the food web we all share.

A chance to learn, work, and commune, these working learnshop sessions will teach vital understanding and skills to landscape and build habitat for wildlife and good health, all of which you could apply on your own property. Sessions will incorporate learning and action to build your understanding of the characteristics, benefits and growing preferences of diverse native plants, along with instruction and opportunity to plant them to flourish. If time allows, we may also delve into identifying and remediating stubborn invasive plant species that often crowd out the native plants which support the living creatures needed by the food web we all share.

Ecological Stewardship Learning Workshop
An Invitation for 2026 Stewardship Volunteers & Learners
Join us this spring along the beautiful Tinicum Creek to begin our second phase of ecological restoration Working Learnshops. On our first day at the camp, we will be walking the entire beautiful creekside in search of an invasive plant called Poison hemlock (yes, the poison hemlock of Socrates fame!). You will learn how to identify this invasive and poisonous plant, learn about safe handling and management techniques, and help mark it locations for future treatment.
You (and any interested youngsters aged 10+) are invited to join us for any or all of the sessions in our upcoming series of Working Learnshops to restore ecosystems in a riparian floodplain along beautiful Tinicum Creek.
WHAT ARE WE DOING?
A chance to learn, work, and commune, these working learnshop sessions will teach vital understanding and skills including remediating invasive plant species in preparation for restoring a degraded ecosystem to a more diverse, native one – skills that can be used on your very own property! Focused on a demonstration-restoration area along Tinicum Creek within a permanently protected 60-acre campground, we began in 2025 by cutting invasive shrubs and pulling invasive Japanese stiltgrass by the handful and by the truckload! The areas cleared of these invasive plants will become our palette for restoration planting sites and learning workshops this spring, summer and fall. These demonstration-restoration areas are just the beginning of a multi-year, multi-property effort we’re planning to restore and renew healthy native ecology along and within Tinicum Creek.
STAY FOR LUNCH!
Please bring your lunch if you’d like and join us to rest, eat, connect and learn after we’re done working. Camp Galil has indoor plumbing. There may be baked goods… please feel free to bring a treat to share. Hopefully, Mother Nature will bring us some much-needed lovely spring weather!
WHEN?
Every other Tuesday and Saturday, from March to June! (unless otherwise rescheduled)

Earth Week Planting Blitz at our Streamside Restoration (Copy)
For six days in late April, we invite any interested area residents to help us plant over 100 life-supporting native trees & shrubs along Tinicum Creek as part of a major habitat restoration project. Please join us in this magnificent sylvan setting to help realize the revitalizing vision for this section of the stream begun by last summer’s campers and refined and developed since by native ecological landscape architect David Hughes of Weatherwood Design.
Using a beautiful and diverse native planting plan designed specifically for this project area, this series of learning workshops represents the first of several stages of native plantings for this restoration project. We have some tools, gloves, and equipment for participants to borrow, but if you have a spade shovel, gloves, wire cutters, and/or mallet of your own, please bring them
