Along the way, visitors will enjoy a curated selection of Bird Town–inspired gardens, learn simple ways to create bird-friendly yards and neighborhoods, visit a Native Plant Sale at Saint Peter’s Episcopal Church (121 Church Street) featuring plants that support birds and insects, and take a chance on raffle prizes celebrating nature, gardening, and community.🌱 Calling All GardenersWe are currently seeking a small group of gardens to feature on the tour.

From clean energy advocacy to trail building, we unite community members around the shared vision of a healthier, more sustainable Phoenixville. We have already helped secure a Borough-wide pledge for 100% renewable energy by 2050, installed solar and geothermal systems in public facilities, and co-founded a regional alliance that won a Chester County grant to chart the transition from fossil fuels. Our leadership has shaped the Phoenixville Greenway, a 10-mile linear park along the Schuylkill River and French Creek, and we are championing the completion of the Schuylkill River Loop Trail, connecting downtown to regional greenways and wildlife sanctuaries. At the community level, we make sustainability visible and inspiring through annual events like Earth Day Phoenixville, the Summer Solstice Garden Tour, and this year we are partnering with Sproutreach, a new local eco-justice group, with Flocktoberfest, highlighting Phoenixville’s Bird Town designation. From banning single-use plastics to reimagining schools, businesses, and neighborhoods for a greener future, our track record proves that grassroots leadership drives real change. By supporting the Green Team, funders empower a model of local action with regional impact, where clean energy, healthy ecosystems, and strong community spirit come together to create lasting transformation.PHOENIXVILLE GREEN TEAM – ACHIEVEMENTS AND IMPACTThe Phoenixville Green Team is a volunteer-driven organization dedicated to advancing community, health, and sustainability in the greater Phoenixville area.
