We want to hear from you!

What do you want to know about the Delaware Watershed?

We’re beginning our 24-month project to talk about all things water. If you missed our big announcement, here’s the 411.

Please take the time to fill out our survey so we can find out how we can best serve our readers. https://forms.gle/1VaBciqCDsodiJgz6

By answering these questions, you’re helping to make sure Green Philly is elevating information about water quality as well as Philadelphia’s stormwater, waterfront access, and recreation. Plus, you’ll be entered to win a $20 gift card.

Lead support is provided by the William Penn Foundation.
