Berks Nature partnered with Kutztown Middle School to convert existing mowed turf area into an unmowed area, planted with 230 native trees and 100 native shrubs.
Along the perimeter of the school, 40 large trees were planted. A section of the parking lot was also planted with 9 trees. These native trees and shrubs help to protect the Saucony Creek, a subwatershed in the Maiden Creek Watershed.
