Independence Conservancy Walk In Penn's Woods At Rocky Bend Nature Preserve A Success In Beaver County
|
|
The Independence Conservancy hosted a Walk in Penn’s Woods at Beaver County’s newest park, Rocky Bend Nature Preserve in Potter Township. Members of the Conservancy led eighteen people on a one-mile hike to explore the scenic Raccoon Creek Greenway with its rocky cliffs, wooded hillsides and quiet shorelines. Tour highlights included a natural stream bank repair, a grove of giant sassafras trees, and a constructed wetland-meadow. Scientists and naturalists walked with the group to answer questions about geology, streams, wetlands, fisheries biology and local history. Rocky Bend Nature Preserve is a public-private partnership between Potter Township municipal government and Independence Conservancy. For more information on programs, initiatives, other upcoming events and how to get involved, visit the Independence Conservancy website. The Conservancy is a nonprofit charitable organization, and the only private land trust based in Beaver County. It is not affiliated with the Beaver County Conservation District.
