Restoring a structure in the Wissahickon Park

Structures

While preserving the natural beauty and wildness of the Wissahickon is a top priority, Friends of the Wissahickon is also committed to restoring the Park’s many man-made Structures, which mirror its diverse history and heritage.

As always, the FOW needs volunteers and a source of funding for these and the dozens of other restoration projects it is planning throughout the Park. If you would like to help, please call the FOW office at 215-247-0417 or email office@fow.org.
