SUMMARY:EcoWomen EcoHour
DESCRIPTION:For our May 18th EcoHour\, join us to hear from Sarah K. Mock\, author of the newly published Farm (And Other F Words). The seed for Sarah K Mock’s passion for farming was planted on her family’s farm in Wyoming. As it grew\, so too did her need to find the answer to a critical question: is it possible to farm without exploiting farmers\, farmworkers\, the environment\, or communities? Mock’s search for answers took her around the globe\, working in and around agriculture for non-profits\, government organizations\, Silicon Valley companies\, the national news media\, and directly with farms.

DESCRIPTION:Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich has released the Draft Vision Zero 2030 Action Plan and Fiscal Years 2022-23 Work Plan for public review and input. The Vision Zero 2030 Action Plan builds on the County’s previous Vision Zero and Pedestrian Safety plans and lays out the work ahead to eliminate traffic-related fatalities and serious injuries by 2030. \nFeedback on the plan starts today and will run through early June. Between April 28 and May 26\, five virtual listening sessions will be held to gather input on the plan. \n“We need to be innovative in using more low-cost interventions to improve more roads and intersections every year. This plan does that by expanding Vision Zero into more of the County’s maintenance programs. We need to hear from County residents to make the Vision Zero Plan stronger and meet the needs of everyone regardless of how they get around the County.” – County Executive Marc Elrich \nVision Zero Coordinator Wade Holland will lead the series of virtual listening sessions. Each session is focused on one of the regional service areas of the County. Residents do not need to live in the service area to attend. Each listening session will begin at 7 p.m. and will be held via Zoom (registration is required): \nMay 5 – Silver Spring\nMay 13 – Up County\nMay 19 – Mid-County\nMay 26 – East County \nA copy of the plan\, access to the feedback survey\, and details on how to register for each listening session are available at:  montgomerycountymd.gov/visionzero/2030plan.html \n

SUMMARY:Meet the Watersheds Virtual Green Drinks Happy Hour
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we “Meet the Watersheds” of Montgomery County and the groups that are working to keep them clean and healthy.\n\n\nNOTE: This event rescheduled from Thursday\, March 25\, to Wednesday\, April 21.\n\n  \n \nThis graphic shows the process of water entering the watershed. When it rains\, all of the water drains to one body of water. It falls on land and travels to a stream and eventually a river that empties into a lake or ocean. Water also soaks into the ground to add to groundwater and underground rivers.  \nBy protecting our watersheds and preventing pollution\, we help secure our quality of life and reduce the costs of government cleanup programs. Also\, keeping our local waters clean helps protect the water supply and habitat for people and animals that live downstream\, allowing them to experience the same benefits. \n \nREGISTER NOW AT\nhttps://omgmeetthewatershed.eventbrite.com  \nSUGGESTED DONATION OF $10

SUMMARY:FREE TREE Giveaway on 4/1 ONLY
DESCRIPTION:Annual Tree Giveaway: April 1st only\n*Pick up at Great Seneca Park* \nDATE and LOCATION CHANGE: We are pleased to offer free native trees on April 1 for the Seneca Creek and Muddy Branch watersheds. Trees will be available at Seneca Creek State Park parking lot for the state park office on Thursday afternoon only. \nEach person/family can take up to (10) seedling trees on a first come basis. We expect to get 50 each of a variety of native species both shrubs\, small trees and large trees. Tree species and descriptions are attached – this varies slightly from the list of requested trees. \nThis year\, we will minimize contact during distribution and plan to adhere to social distancing requirements (6 feet). Please allow time to wait your turn\, and bring your own newspaper/paper bags\, buckets or plastic bags in which to carry your trees. Please note all trees will need to be planted ASAP since they are bare root\, but as they are small and are easy to plant.\n \nTrees will be available at Seneca Creek State Park parking lot for the state park office on Thursday afternoon only.\n \nDistribution time & place: Thursday 4/1 2 pm – 6:30 pm; Seneca State Park\n               \nTrees will need deer protection: stakes with wire fencing works well. This year they’ll also need netting to protect from cicadas. Easy to secure as these are such small trees but essential. Info on tree planting is found here. We are sorry but we cannot set aside trees.  \nContact Merikay Smith if you have questions (merikays@verizon.net).\nPlease do not call the State Park – they don’t know event details.
