Norristown Farm Park    Project Details

Thu Mar 19, 2009

An eroding stream bank was stabilized and replanted using erosion-control tubes filled with a composted growing medium.  Despite being under water several times, the fully vegetated berm is holding strong and continues to protect the Stony Creek from erosion at this site.

    Requiring very little manpower to install, the Norristown Farm Park project demonstrates the potential for easy and efficient stream bank restoration projects, as well as the effectiveness of established vegetation. Signage at the site helps visitors understand how the living berm works to protect the stream.
