🐦⛈️ Last night, volunteers from the Upper Allen Township Bird Town PA Committee hosted a booth at Camp Hill Borough's StormFest, sharing how healthy waterways and healthy bird populations go hand in hand.

Visitors learned how conservation practices like rain gardens, riparian buffers, native plantings, wetland restoration, and other green stormwater solutions help reduce pollution, improve water quality, and create valuable habitat for birds and other wildlife.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to chat and get a cool bird tattoo!

A special thank you to Camp Hill Borough and Camp Hill Bird Town for hosting another great StormFest event focused on conservation, sustainability, and environmental stewardship! 🌿🦆🌎
