"What's Up, Watershed?" blog is ready to read!

"What's Up, Watershed?", a blog started in 2024 by the Pennsylvania Resources Council's Environmental Program Coordinator Chris Bunn, has been uploaded in its entirety to the Growing Greener Communities website! This bi-monthly blog is all about Pennsylvania watersheds, what goes on in them, and how we can protect them--told with anecdotes from its author(s). Previous topics have included easy conservation methods like live-staking and leaving the leaves, the lives of native fauna like dragonflies and dowitchers, and public figures like Pennsylvania's own Rachel Carson.
