“Earth Day is every day” was the thought behind Springside School and Chestnut Hill Academy joining forces for a 7th grade service day devoted to environmental work at various sites.

Some of the students worked in the Wissahickon Woods behind the school removing a silt fence and completing other work with Fairmount Park’s Volunteer Coordinator David Bower and Volunteer Coordinator Kevin Groves from Friends of the Wissahickon. Other students headed to projects at Weaver’s Way Farm and Mill Creek Urban Farm.

Pictured from left in the Wissahickon Woods are Dillon Halloran, Peter Ferraro, Emily Miller, Taylor Wrubel, Jimmy Jansen, and Lawson Sanford.
