“We like STEM’s Swede Run Fields because it is a really solid project that offers great access for the public,” she said. “I walk here almost daily with my dog CeCe,” said Mitchell Kendall, 60, who is retired and lives in nearby Delran. Citing the “Bluebird Trail” of boxes built and installed on poles in grasslands by STEM volunteers, she said the township is “so grateful to them for creating this wonderful addition to Moorestown.”
He also said some “adaptive management” on the western field where decades of farming smoothed out the sites of vernal pools — transient but recurring bodies of water — would provide habitats for amphibians, fish, and other critters.Pensiero said the township mows the fields, based on federal guidelines, and maintains the two-mile walking trail that loops through the property.
