Upper Milford Township encompasses the villages of Powder Valley, Shimerville, Vera Cruz, Old Zionsville, and Zionsville in the southern most portion of Lehigh County. Nestled within rolling hills and scenic valleys, the Township has a rural aura with picturesque churches and barns, many vintage houses, fields for farming, and small family businesses. Expanded consumer services and shopping opportunities are readily available via the Routes 29/100 highway. Nearby areas include immediate neighbors, Emmaus and Macungie; Allentown and Bethlehem, 15-20 minutes north; and the Upper Perkiomen Valley, 15 minutes south. Philadelphia is a 45 minute drive south.

The health of the Lehigh Valley—and the future of our soil, streams, and communities—begins beneath our feet.

Native plants build living root networks that hold soil, prevent erosion, absorb rainwater, and filter pollution before it reaches our streams and rivers. Plantings along our waterways can stabilize banks and slow stormwater runoff. When invasive plants take over, these protections vanish, increasing the risks of erosion, flooding, and polluted waterways.

Monday, October 26th at 5PM come help us remove the invasive species along the Leibert Creek next to the Emmaus Public Library. What grows above ground matters—but what happens below ground may determine our future.
