BCCD started construction of the Raccoon Creek Streambank Stabilization Growing Greener Grant project in Independence Township. This project will reduce erosion, reduce sedimentation, provide aquatic habitat, and improve water quality by restoring bank stability. This project uses natural stream channel design structures and habitat friendly in-stream structures. A series of five rock and log j-hook vanes with attached root wads have been installed. Live stakes will be planted in the fall to complete the project. This project will also protect a public walking trail that is located along Raccoon Creek.....

Bags & Blessings partnered with Beaver County Conservation District, Beaver County Commissioners, Beaver County Recreation and Tourism, Beaver County Department of Public Works, and Lake Forest Gardens to make this project possible.
This program offers a unique way to memorialize or honor someone. An individual tree memorial is a tall tribute to a loved one; as part of a forest, the memorials will serve a purpose much bigger than themselves. They will create healthy ecosystems and stunning park for all to cherish.
The tree plantings will occur twice a year, in the Spring and Fall. The trees start as 10' trees in a burlap ball that are well established to ensure their health and longevity. A permanent map will be installed to note the location of each of these special trees.
