Wildlands Conservancy’s Stream Team Volunteers – 2026!
Dates: Fridays, May 29 – Sept. 25, 8:00 AM – 11:00 AM at various locations – check out our website for more information.

If you’re ready to go with the flow, join us as we maintain vegetative areas along streams (riparian buffers) and help ensure the survival of young, native trees in the forest buffer. These vital areas improve water quality in local communities, reduce erosion and flooding concerns, and provide habitat for wildlife.

Repairing vegetative streamside areas, also called riparian buffers, is a science-based method to:
• Improving water quality by reducing pollutants entering waterways through runoff, providing clean drinking water for hundreds of thousands of people in local communities.
• Restoring habitat for fish and native birds by planting native vegetation that provides sustenance and cools the water temperature.
• Reducing flooding downstream.
Stream Team is an act of environmental stewardship, which is our guiding principle to protecting and restoring our critical waterways that are the lifeblood of the Lehigh Valley and Lehigh River.

Stream Team is a great volunteer opportunity for individuals, college students, and community groups. Volunteers are encouraged to register for multiple dates and locations at: https://www.wildlandspa.org/streamteam/.

Join us for a guided tour of a thriving micro forest, an innovative, densely planted pocket of native trees and shrubs designed to mimic the early stages of a natural forest.

Micro forests support wildlife, improve soil health, help manage stormwater, and quickly grow into vibrant mini ecosystems. Inspired by Easton Conservation Manager Rob Christopher’s work and his step by step guide, this walk showcases how native plant diversity, thoughtful design, and compact planting can create a living, educational habitat in just a few years.

Perfect for nature enthusiasts, gardeners, educators, and anyone curious about powerful small scale conservation solutions.

This program is offered free thanks to funding from City of Easton. Please register online. Your registration matters — it helps us prepare materials, plan group size, and ensure the best experience for all participants. Registration opens Monday, May 18.
