Plainfield Township web site highlights Conservation Resources

Communities considering a web redesign for their municipal site or expanding on available conservation & recreation information should check out Plainfield Township's web site!   Plainfield Township’s (Northampton County) municipal web site is a great example of a community using their web presence to spread awareness amongst residents and/or visitors of the township's significant natural, cultural and recreational assets.  Site users get an immediate feel for Plainfield Township's "sense of place" through the site design/theme used as well as the resources and images prominently featured.  

The Environmental Advisory Council page also discusses municipal goals of protection, conservation, management, promotion and use of natural resources including air, land, and water located within its territorial limits.

Additional links to various additional local and regional conservation resources include area nature centers (Lehigh Gap Nature Center, Jacobsburg Environmental Education Center, etc.), conservation groups (Audubon PA, Heritage Conservancy, etc.), trails (Appalachian Trail hikes in PA), and regional conservation partnerships (Lehigh Valley Greenways, Kittatinny Coalition, etc.). 

Plainfield Township's web site was funded in part by a Lehigh Valley Greenways grant administered by Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor.
