Clintonville Green Team is a volunteer-driven committee
We organize and show up to community or volunteering events, work days, local markets, festivals, civic forums, and get-togethers with resources about conservation
Sustainability is a broad subject area covering the environment, energy, public health, civic engagement, and much more. As a committee, we are involved in a variety of projects, throughout Clintonville and nearby areas
We invite the community to make choices that will create a better future for our neighborhood and participate on the boards, working groups, or advisory councils of local organizations
We talk to neighbors, groups, students, businesses… pretty much anyone… about what it means to be sustainable and how they can get involved
We create, maintain, and support gardens in backyards and public spaces that support local biodiversity and beautify our world. We plant trees to enhance our canopy and improve air/water quality
We keep the neighborhood clean by removing trash from our public spaces. Almost anyone can help with this, anytime! Keep it clean, keep it green
