Delaware & Raritan Canal State Park

A big thank you to all who came out to volunteer with us from EY in honor of Earth Day! With their help, we were able to cover 2.5 miles of the Towpath near Six Mile Run and collect 54 pounds of litter from along the trail. This was an excellent reminder for everyone to carry in and carry out their garbage anytime you recreate, and to be mindful of our impacts on the planet. Volunteers also managed to remove vines from more than 100 trees and had the opportunity to learn about local ecology from park staff. Thank you volunteers!

Enjoy this fun nature walk hosted by the lovely staff at Bulls Island Recreation Area! Spring is a great time of year to get outside and explore your local trails.
