Join Philadelphia Parks & Recreation and the Fairmount Park Conservancy for a vine pulling at Cobbs Creek Park!
Cobbs Creek Park is an 800-acre greenway of forested valleys, wetlands, and trails. It's also the site of a major forest restoration project, aimed at improving Philly's resilience to ever warmer and wetter seasons. Join us to learn more and to help prepare our forests for this changing climate! We'll spend the morning pulling vines, clearing invasives, and exploring the lesser-known trails of Cobbs Creek Park.
Wear sturdy, closed toed shoes, and clothes you won't mind getting dirty. Make sure to pack yourself plenty of water, snacks, and to layer up! We'll provide work gloves, but you're welcome to bring your own.
This is an outdoor event, so we may need to cancel in the event of steady rain or thunderstorms. Please check your inbox the week-of for confirmations.
Projects are lead by Philadelphia Parks & Recretion and Fairmount Park Conservancy staff. All tools and materials are provided.
