These landscape contractors have been spotted dumping yard waste in Carpenter’s Woods. Please watch for any dumping in Carpenter’s Woods and report infringements as soon as possible to David Bower and the Rangers.

Dumping yard waste in Carpenter’s Woods introduces seeds, plants, fungi, parasites, and chemicals that are foreign to the woods, often non-native to Pennsylvania, and can threaten habitat and our water supply. Piles of yard waste can also inhibit growth of existing plants, threatening the stability of the plant population.
