Our Purpose

Project Green Lawn is a public awareness campaign to encourage residents, businesses, and municipal officials and staff to maintain healthy lawns free of chemicals that are harmful to people, pets and our environment.

Summary of Projects

Project Green Lawn received a small grant in 2008 to update and reprint a brochure for the Project Green Lawn educational campaign about the negative environmental and health impacts of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides and alternative lawn care and landscaping practices. The brochure will be used for tabling, at events, workshops and in literature drops throughout the city.
