Community & Corporate Volunteer Opportunities from September - November!
Sign-ups are now open, with more dates coming soon!!

A volunteer-driven, multi-month restoration initiative aimed at planting 5,000 native trees, shrubs and perennials throughout the watershed each year!

A huge thank you to the 350 volunteers who participated in the 2025 Perkiomen Plant-A-Thon! Your hard work helped us to plant 1,000 trees and 2,000 perennials across 12 different planting sites throughout the watershed. These native plants will help to reinforce streambanks, reduce stormwater runoff, provide vital habitat for wildlife and expand native plant cover at parks, open spaces and streamside areas throughout the watershed.

Corporate Sponsorship

Support the Plant-A-Thon and help restore the Perkiomen Creek Watershed!

Each fall, the Perkiomen Watershed Conservancy works with volunteers to plant more than 5,000 native trees, shrubs, and wildflowers throughout the watershed. These plantings restore streamside forests, improve water quality, reduce erosion, and create critical habitat for wildlife.

Your sponsorship directly supports native plants, restoration supplies, and volunteer-led planting events that make this work possible. Every donation helps create a healthier watershed for future generations.
