The purpose of the event is to re-establish native species of trees in order to restore a healthy ecosystem at the preserve. Reforestation efforts at the Trexler Nature Preserve are made possible by a grant from Air Products, donations from PPL, The Wild Turkey Federation and the Pennsylvania Game Commission. Other partners include Wildlands Conservancy and the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources. The event will take place rain or shine; please dress for the weather.
