Commission approves native-plant giveaways and outreach purchases for Win Weekend
Summary
The commission approved buying a tray of 50 native plant plugs (~$100) and a display easel (~$50) for Win Weekend outreach to promote the 'Go Native' campaign; staffing and materials plans were set and volunteers will collect contact information at the table.
The commission approved motions to purchase a tray of 50 native plant plugs (about $100) and a display easel (about $50) to use at Win Weekend in August, where Becky Eaton and Susannah Wood will staff a table to promote the "Go Native" campaign. The motion to purchase the plant plugs passed unanimously, as did the motion to buy the easel.
Commissioners said they will collect visitor contact information at the event, distribute native-plant giveaways and stickers for the "pollinator pathway" activity, and encourage residents to sign up for volunteer activities. The minutes note the commission will source a printed map produced via the Housatonic Valley Association and will give away leftover mosquito dunks as part of outreach.
