Native Tree Planting Begins at Local Parks Today
Feasterville Trevose, PA · July 15, 2026
Wednesday morning is bringing a bit of extra shade to our neighborhood. Keep an eye out for the planting crews starting their work at the township parks before the midday heat kicks in.
📰 The Lead
The "Green Canopy" initiative officially takes root this morning as crews begin planting the first of 100 native trees across our local park system. This project, funded through a combination of state environmental grants and township capital funds, aims to restore the natural shade canopy that has thinned over the last decade due to storm damage and invasive species.
The first phase focuses on the perimeter of the walking trails, providing much-needed relief for summer joggers and families. Beyond the aesthetics, these oaks and maples are selected for their high water absorption to help with local runoff during heavy summer storms. Township officials expect the initial planting phase to wrap up by Friday, with a second round of saplings scheduled for the cooler autumn months.
