We are a group of people taking action to care for public places in downtown Turners Falls...
and to plant fruit trees and berry bushes around town.

Over the Winter, we will be hosting a discussion group on Social Ecology and Local Action.

Please spread the word about our next meeting, and come if you're called.

We've had 2 events so far:

Cider Pressing - Oct 14

Unity Park Community Garden Fall Clean Up - Nov 18
