Meeting at Kitchen’s Lane Bridge on Forbidden Drive (view on Google Maps)

Parking: There is limited parking at the Kitchens Lane Parking lot, as well as more extensive street parking near the Jannette Street Trailhead. Both of these options are a short hike away from our meeting location, so please plan your arrival time accordingly. If you’re taking public transit, our location is accessible via the 9, 32, and 53 buses. See map for details.
Bathrooms: The Kitchen’s Lane composting bathroom will be available for use.

Would you like to be part of keeping Wissahickon Valley Park beautiful and sustainable? Then join us as we prepare for a native planting at the Kitchen’s Lane Bridge!

All are welcome to attend, and no experience is needed. We encourage attendees to work within their own comfort level, and we always strive to accommodate needs on an individual basis. With that being said, this service day may include the following activities:

• Planting site preparation: using long handled tools for cutting, scraping, and digging

We provide gloves, tools, and instruction–you just need to show up! Be sure to wear sturdy footwear and long pants, and remember to bring water with you. Detailed information and confirmation of the meeting location will be sent by email one business day before the event. If you are hoping to bring a group of 5 or more people, please reach out to us first.

Registration is required for all volunteer service days so that participants can be informed of emergency cancellations. Service days are cancelled in steady precipitation or other dangerous weather conditions.
