The Bucks County Audubon Society was founded as a chapter of the National Audubon Society in 1969. Spanning over 110 acres, the property consists of a 1936 renovated barn that serves as a visitor center, meadows, ponds, wetlands and streams, such as the Honey Hollow creek. Also located on the property are over 100 confirmed species of birds -- that's a lot of wildlife! However, one historical landmark that the Bucks County Audubon Society manages is the Honey Hollow Watershed. History of the Watershed can be traced back to the 1930s where it was comprised of 5 farms of 650 acres. At the time, the change in cultivation from horse drawn equipment to tractors and other large machinery had caused the fields to wash away. In order to prevent further damage to their land, the 5 families from each of the farms banded together and built ditches which controlled runoff of water on steep slopes, planted long, dense hedges and brush to lessen the erosion, and built several ponds filled with fish. By working with one another and Federal agencies, the local farmers were able to conserve and protect the soil, water, and wildlife within the watershed.
