A rain garden is coming to the White Clay Creek Preserve! We're ditching the lawn and installing native plants. Why? The garden will soak up runoff, support pollinators, create wildlife habitat, add beauty, and enhance the experience for everyone visiting.

Volunteers will plant around 1,000 native plants and mulch the garden afterward. Prior to planting, Park staff will have removed the lawn, taken down the invasive Norway maple tree, and graded the site. Click below to see the shifts and sign up.

Review the agenda here.

Join us to learn how rain gardens and other green practices manage stormwater, reduce flooding, filter pollutants, recharge wells, and improve water quality.

Rebates only apply to property owners in the White Clay Creek watershed, but workshops are open to anyone wanting to learn more!

What do rain gardens, bird rehab & garden maintenance have in common? Find out at this outdoor afternoon event! We’re partnering with Tri-State Bird Rescue & Research for our annual cut back of the garden. Dead stems don’t need to be “yard waste” - they can help rehabilitate rescued birds instead!

Injured birds rely on natural materials for cover and hiding like our dead stems. Seedheads from native plants also provide a vital food source for birds, and that’s why we’re donating ours. Talk about upcycling!

Bring yourself or your kids, and stop by the Pavilion on your way to hike, play, or bike the trails!
