Transition Town Port Washington

Our community is very lucky to have Residents Forward and Transition Town Port Washington. These two organizations are always going above and beyond to keep our community clean and beautiful. Thank you for organizing the shoreline cleanup this morning. with/Senator Anna M. Kaplan

Perfect way to educate. We enjoyed participating in Live at Five at the Science Museum of Long Island

Please join us Saturday!

Look out for volunteer opportunities, show love on social media, and show up to town halls to sing the praises of public green space.
