Native Habitat Restoration
Playwiki Farm
PAWCorridor.org provided a grant to Playwiki Farm providing trees, deer protection, stakes. Excel Events instructed and guided how to plant and informed volunteers why we were planting these understory trees. 50 white oak and 45 sugar maple were planted in Feasterville-Trevose at Playwiki farm as the successional understory which will provide forest canopy as Beech Leaf Disease devastates our forests in Pennsylvania. This Nematode swims through the mycelium in the soil infecting the Beech trees.
More about Beech Leaf Disease and how to mitigate the problem in our forests and on your property: from Rutgers, (New Jersey’s Land Grant College)
Date Installed: October 2026

Green Lane
Excel Events acquired a land owner agreement with Bucks County, PA to remediate 20 acres of dilapidated Bucks County corridor forest land across from Truman High School, and Ben Franklin middle school along Mill Creek Rd in Bristol Township, PA.
Everything from concept to project design, providing tools and equipment needed, volunteer instruction, purchasing of trees, connecting seedling for schools grant, and coordinating multiple partners, Excel Events has started it’s largest multi-year reforestation project to date. The intention of this project is to establish a nature trail and food forest using only native trees, shrubs, wildflower and grasses in an area that was an invasive plant overrun eye sore.

River Trail – Neshaminy State Park
1236 Native Trees and Shrubs were planted in Neshaminy State Park from 2020-2022 by volunteers for Nonprofit Excel Events funded by Treevitalize and in Partnership with Keystone 10 Million Trees.
This is a Reforestation project remediating 2.5 acres covered by invasive plants back into native habitat. First we remove invasive plants then plant native trees and shrubs that can handle both drought and wet conditions. The funding came initially from a riparian buffer grant to help divert storm water in a priority flood zone. This will provide natural habitat for wildlife and migrating birds while native flowering shrubs feed pollinators and flowering native trees help feed other insects.

Native Habitat Restoration
Our customers are the wildlife and public that enjoy the thriving native habitat. From Trees, Shrubs, Meadow Grass, wildflower, and the insects and wildlife that can sustain themselves within that habitat, we all benefit in different ways
We see native habitat and its beauty, we see the insects and wildlife that it sustains.
We also get to eat the native edible berries and fruit.
