GreenHour
GreenHour.org The National Wildlife Federation recommends
that parents give their kids a "Green Hour" every day, a time for unstructured play and interaction with the natural world. This can take place in a garden, a backyard, the park down the street, or any place that provides safe and accessible green spaces where children can learn and play. www.greenhour.org

‘Green’ Habitat for Humanity Home
Green Home The Trust has pledged $500 toward the first “Green Home” built by Habitat for Humanity. The property, designated by the Town of Westford for the construction of affordable housing, is located at 18 Williams Avenue, and will be the site of Habitat’s first new home in Westford. According to Habitat, compared to conventional construction, building to certain green standards could “increase the home’s energy efficiency by as much as 40 percent and significantly decrease annual energy bills”. Contact us if you are interested in volunteer opportunities for this project.

Seven Years of Westford Wildlife Data

Trust members Mau and Maurilio Fernandes compiled photos and descriptions from the last 7 years of wildlife reporting in Westford into a compelling presentation, which was presented by Marian Harman at the 2007 Trust Annual Meeting. These reports came from our many local wildlife reporters which have also been published in the Westford Eagle’s Wildlife Watch column.
