Shoutout to the Philadelphia Water Department for receiving AWWA's 2026 Exemplary Source Water Protection Award.

We're proud to work alongside PWD and partners across the Schuylkill watershed to protect our drinking water at the source.

"What makes the Schuylkill Action Network successful is perserverance, decades-long collaborations, building trust between partners, and real investment" -Matthew Fritch

Into the upper Schuylkill River Watershed we went, where we had a great view from Kittatinny Ridge of preserved land in the Appalachian Trail viewshed, and then to Last Chance Angus, LLC, where we met Ned, the guard llama.

Thank you to Schuylkill River Greenways NHA for being a great partner, and congratulations to the 2026 Schuylkill River Restoration Fund grant recipients.

We hope to see you there!

Holy cow (or sheep 🐑), that’s a beautiful stream restoration! Last week, SAN’s Agriculture & Stormwater Workgroups visited Watts Farm to tour a successful stream restoration project featuring mudsill cribbing, 1,700 newly planted trees and shrubs, upland pollinator habitat, and rotational grazing for the sheep paddock.

This is just one of the many stunning conservation projects made possible through the hard work and collaboration of SAN partners.
