Fridays in the Forest Workday
February 3, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:30 pm
Join us for this week’s Fridays in the Forest workday at Quakertown Swamp for forest edge maintenance. Where the forest meets the meadow, known as an ecotone, is prime habitat for species such as indigo buntings and cedar wax-wings along with a plethora of other species. A wavy forest edge provides more habitat by linear foot than a straight forest edge; therefore, we will be selectively cutting back portions of the encroaching forest and allow certain encroachments to continue.
Work level: Moderate to strenuous
Tools: Hand saws and loppers
Time: 10:00 AM – 12:30 PM
Register: Register with Melissa Lee at mlee@heritageconservancy.org or 215-345-7020 x 120
