Join Green Philly at The Discovery Center to connect with your local watershed and network with sustainability enthusiasts! Dive into a mussel measuring class or take a bird tour of the Strawberry Mansion Reservoir with Audubon Mid-Atlantic. Sign up for your preferred activity upon arrival, so be sure to arrive on time!
Introduction to Freshwater Mussels: Get up close with these little cleaners at The Discovery Center. The mussels will be placed throughout the Delaware River Watershed to improve water quality. The mussel counting will be mostly seated.
Bird Tour: Explore the 38-acre Strawberry Mansion Reservoir, a key stop on the Atlantic Flyway for migrating birds, with over 170 species spotted. Observe and explore the trails to find year-round residents. It’s a very flat trail, but not fully ADA.
