Wyncote Elementary School Native Bird Habitat

TTF recently helped with planting an Audubon-certified native bird habitat at Wyncote Elementary School. You may remember the last time we assisted with a native bird habitat at Cedarbrook Middle School — it was featured in this Greenlife Pennsylvania video.

This time, the project was led by two dynamic leaders from Delaware Valley Earth Force’s Youth Leaders team. Throughout the day, Wyncote students helped in each stage of the planting, with the final result being a beautiful garden of all native plants for local birds — and people! — to enjoy.

Here are some photos from the day, courtesy of Delaware Valley Earth Force. Below, Barb Duffy from the Cheltenham Environmental Advisory Council demonstrates proper planting techniques to some very helpful student participants.
