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. 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, which will include sessions on invasive plant species remediation, native habitat design, and native plants and their installation.
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)
