Penn’s West Woods Trout Unlimited is working with Hollow Oak Land Trust on Meeks Run and you can help!
Meeks run is a small cold water tributary to the Montour Run and has seen major erosion due to significant rain events over the last couple of years. This is causing banks to collapse sending sediment into Montour Run and destroying aquatic habitat

Penn’s Woods West volunteers will be helping build stream deflectors. You will get in the stream to help place and secure logs and backfill them to help stabilize the stream after several years of heavy erosion.
Wear durable waders or tall boots, long sleeves, and work gloves and plan to get dirty!
