Bucks County Audubon Society invites the community to explore and learn about Honey Hollow Watershed beginning Wednesday, October 7 and continuing each week on Wednesday throughout the month of October at 1:00pm. Walks will be led by Bucks County Audubon Society educators versed in the captivating and colorful history of the people and places that comprise Honey Hollow Watershed located in the heart of Bucks County between Lahaska and New Hope. For people who cannot make a week day walk, there are other opportunities to learn about Honey Hollow on the third weekend in October (October 17 and 18). Visit our website for more information: www.bcas.org.
Due to a dedicated group of local farmers much of Solebury’s history is preserved in the landscape along Route 263 and along Creamery Road – part of the 700-acre Honey Hollow Watershed. The contoured farm fields, stone walls, hedgerows were part of the joint cooperative effort back in 1939 that became a national model of federal, state and local partnership for watershed management and soil conservation at Honey Hollow now managed by Bucks County Audubon Society and its land use partners.
The Wednesday walks are free and open to all. Meet at the Visitor Center parking lot located at 2877 Creamery Road, Solebury. Participants for the walking tours should wear comfortable shoes and dress for fall temperatures. A walk will be cancelled in the event of heavy rain, high winds or thunderstorms. Allow 1 to 1 1⁄2 hours for the tour. Please visit www.BCAS.org for a complete calendar of events taking place as part of the Harvest Festival in October. Bucks County Audubon Society at Honey Hollow is located at 2877 Creamery Road (upper section between Rt. 263 and Meetinghouse Road) in Solebury, two miles east of Peddler's Village.
