Summary

We’ll discuss rain barrels, rain gardens, and other initiatives to improve local and regional water quality.

Description

(6:30 pm – 8 pm) Did you know that stormwater is the primary way that pollutants such as fertilizers, pesticides, petroleum products, harmful bacteria (pet waste), and other toxic materials are transported into our local creeks and rivers? Join Audubon and Penn State Extension to talk about stormwater, problems associated with runoff, and what we all can do about it. We’ll discuss rain barrels, rain gardens, and other initiatives to improve local and regional water quality. This program is open to everyone. Attendees who live in the Buffalo Creek Watershed will receive a free tree. Free, but advance registration required.
 

These programs are offered free of cost by Audubon and the Buffalo Creek Watershed Coalition with support from the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection’s Growing Greener Fund.
