Water gardens are becoming more and more popular. Although there are a variety of sources for information, we have listed a few here which we use from time to time. If you know of a site which has been particularly helpful to you, please let us know so we can include it here . The BioPond is supported entirely by income from endowment and private donations. If you are interested in learning more about how to support the garden financially, please contact Dr. Thomas Waldman in Penn's External Affairs Office.
Ducks find food in the pond, but often look in compost piles, which are rich in worms and insects.
The BioPond may not be the best home for turtles, and many die without knowledgeable care.
