The Delaware River Greenway Partnership successfully obtained a grant from the Pennsylvnia Department of Environmental Protections Growing Greener Program. The grant was combined with funding from the United States National Park Service to stabilize one-hundred feet of eroded streambank on the Tohickon Creek. Volunteers helped place native vegetation along the banks of the Tohickon in order to increase habitat and decrease erosion and sedimentation on this tributary to the Delaware River.

This same grant program is providing funding to identify and involve large landowners in our public and private partnership. The Land Stewardship Program will link landowners with our partnering organizations in an effort to conserve land, stabilize streambanks, and participate in a number of stewardship opportunities provided by our partners.
