Perkiomen Watershed Conservancy Initiatives

The Conservancy was established in 1964 and has been committed to protecting the water resources of the Perkiomen Creek through environmental education and meaningful conservation stewardship for 45 years.

The Conservancy’s Strategic Plan includes three primary objectives:

     1. Educate & Inspire
     2. Provide Tools for Action
     3. Engage the Watershed Community

Be a Green Leader!

Participation in the Protectors of the Perkiomen provides an opportunity for your business to be a Green Leader in your community. Protectors also receive direct benefits valued between $1,290 and $6,290. (see below)

Protectors of the Perkiomen are noted as supporters of all Conservancy programs and events and will be specifically noted at the Conservancy’s signature activities:

  • Annual watershed-wide Stream Clean-up: As many as 500 volunteers participate in the annual Stream Clean-Up.  Protectors help offset the many costs of organizing this event.  The Clean-Up focuses on designated areas for maximum water quality impact and volunteer involvement.
  • Streambank Restoration Projects: Erosion of streambanks and sedimentation of creeks are primary causes of poor water quality in the Perkiomen watershed. Streambank restoration and riparian buffer enhancements help keep soil in place and protect instream habitats. Protectors help offset many miscellaneous costs that funding grants will not cover.
  • Environmental Education: The Conservancy’s EE programs are unmatched in the area and provide exceptional hands-on learning  experiences for all age groups and abilities. Understanding how the environment works is the first step toward finding sustainable ways to support local economic prosperity.
  • Outreach: Protectors' contributions also support increased media attention on conservation and education efforts throughout the Perkiomen watershed.
