Our Purpose

Non Toxic Portsmouth NH is a grassroots non-profit organization dedicated to protecting environmental health in the City of Portsmouth. Our efforts led to the passage of the first Non Toxic Resolution in NH on a 7-1 vote by the Portsmouth City Council on September 18, 2017. There is a dire need for new playing fields on the Seacoast.  The previous City Council funded the building of one expensive synthetic turf playing field in 2020. However, for the same approved dollars, we can build four new, state of the art, organically maintained natural turf playing fields in 2020.
