In 2013, Natural Lands Trust obtained $1,000,000 in grant funding to help the Township purchase and preserve 66 acres of land-once part of the fabled Ardrossan Farm.
In addition to designing the trail, we helped Radnor Township acquire land that is critical to their park plans. Natural Lands Trust’s planners also provided recommendations for related streamside buffer plantings, roadway greening, stormwater management BMPs, and intersection improvements. The Township engaged Natural Lands Trust to design the Darby-Paoli Trail, which will connect three existing parks-The Willows, Skunk Hollow, and Saw Mill Park-through a combination of multi-use and pedestrian paths that will wind along more than three miles of the township’s most scenic and iconic vistas. Recently, Radnor Township made great strides toward this people-nature connection with plans for a new trail system.
At Natural Lands Trust, we recognize that being caretakers of land is about more than mowing turf, pulling vines, and attracting butterflies it’s also about connecting people to nature.
