Programs

Programs are how we connect our watershed constituents to creeks, each other, and our mission to improve our shared watershed. Our programs incorporate environmental education, stewardship, restoration, and advocacy…as well as science and fun.

We create programs based on your ideas and input.

    • Cleanup Kits
    • Bilingual Bird Walks

We develop and provide programs with lots of different partners.

    • Jenkintown Creek Restoration
    • Soak It Up Adoption

We work to ensure that our programs incorporate art, health, history, and environmental justice.

    • Love Our Park!
    • Tacony Creek Park Oral Histories

And every year, we celebrate our watershed heroes through our annual Watershed Milestones Award Ceremony & Reception. We recognize outstanding individuals, educators, public leaders, youth, non-profit organizations, and businesses from all across our watershed.  This event is an opportunity to thank our Partner Alliance, network, and raise funds for TTF.

We want to hear from you!
