The VGC’s intern began this past month and is busy working with the committee on inputting important information that will allow the VGC to do a tree inventory. The Village Green Committee needs more members to join. There are many opportunities to volunteer whether directly helping with the inventory project to media graphics, workshop development and education materials. If you are interested in learning more about tree diversity and how that affects the health of the village, please reach out! The Village Green meets once a quarter at this point and so could be a great fit for someone wanting to be involved but doesn’t have a large amount of time to commit.
Residents and businesses interested in having a tree(s) planted on their adjacent Village Street or NYS highway right-of-way’s, volunteering for planting days, or sponsoring a VGC beautification project, myself, Kym Bradley-Rickard, or Jen Cavanaugh - Village Clerk.
Meetings are open to the public. Please reach out if you are interested in joining the next meeting.
