The Friends of Fishing Creek will host an event on Wednesday, March 18, at Drumore Mill, 1658 Harmony Ridge Road, Drumore. The event will begin at 6 p.m. with light refreshments and socialization. At 6:30 p.m., Lamonte Garber, watershed restoration coordinator at Stroud Water Research Center, and Marcy Hostetler, founder of ColorGarden Inc., will present ways of nurturing a property for birds and butterflies while restoring the Fishing Creek Watershed.

The Fishing Creek Watershed, covering 14 square miles, is in the southwest section of Lancaster County. About 28 miles of streams and tributaries run through the Fishing Creek Watershed. The main stem of the watershed starts just west of the village of Buck and flows mostly southwest before it enters the Susquehanna River.

The Friends of Fishing Creek group is a local nonprofit volunteer organization committed to monitoring, preserving, educating, and promoting the Fishing Creek Watershed. The group has regularly scheduled educational and volunteer events and opportunities for both adults and youths.

There is a fee. To register by Monday, March 16, visit http://www.eventbrite.com and search for "Fishing Creek" with "Drumore" as the location or visit the Friends of Fishing Creek Facebook page.
