Wetlands

etlands offer many things to plants and animals, as well as humans. They provide essential filtering mechanisms for pollutants in our water, help protect us from floods, offer unique plants and food for wildlife, and provide humans with a place of wonder and a sense of serenity.

his week Watersheds.tv brings you a special sneak preview at a recently completed GreenWorks production, highlighting the beauty and natural wonder of Pennsylvania’s wetlands.

n this six-minute clip we travel to Black Moshannon State Park in Centre County for a glimpse at a rare wetland system in Pennsylvania. As you’ll see, there are many plants found here that are at the southern end of their range – normally found in Canada. Rare gems like the Pitcher Plant are just some of the things that attract naturalists to this beautiful area.
