Mercer County Greening Together 2021

Mercer County Sustainability Coalition and Sustainable Lawrence are planning on this year’s “Greening Together” event to highlight and celebrate Mercer County Green teams, nonprofits, community groups, and individuals to be part of GreenFest 2021. Greening Together will be an opportunity to learn from experts, connect with neighbors, and share new ideas. The event is being planned for Earth Week 2021 in April. Sustainable Lawrence will be offering a Lawrence Township Green Kit to individuals or households that are interested. We will offer information about our local resources and bring together more citizen scientist to help Lawrence Township become more sustainable for future generations.

Interested in helping celebrate with Sustainable Lawrence? Take a look at the incredible event line-up!
