National Grant Funds Efforts to Connect Baltimore City Residents with Nature and Conservation Action

Efforts to connect and involve Baltimore-area residents with protecting the health of local waters, wildlife and habitat will get a boost from one of 41 newly-announced TogetherGreen national Innovation Grants. Workshops and hands-on activities will engage inner-city and suburban residents to promote alternative maintenance and landscaping of yards and public areas. The preferred practices will help to reduce the use of pesticides, fertilizers, irrigation and other contributors to contaminated runoff and airborne pollution, while creating inviting and healthy places for birds and people.
