Hard to believe it’s that time of year already! Save the date for our sixth annual apple festival- it’s shaping up to be the best one yet!
Sign up for the 3rd annual Boxers Trail Walk/Run! We always have a great time and it’s a great way to appreciate our beautiful section of the park. You can also register onsite on Saturday.

On Saturday, July 12th, we hosted a successful volunteer day at the Ridge Avenue Green Resource Center in partnership with the Pennsylvania Horticultural Society, The Office of the U.S. Attorney, the Strawberry Mansion NAC and CDC, and members of the Strawberry Mansion community. Thanks so much to everyone who lent a hand, and a special thank you to our partners who helped make this day possible! We were able to complete 14 new beds for our community garden and 9 additional beds to use with Strawberry Mansion High School’s culinary arts program.
