Sustain Greenville: Who We Are

Sustain Greenville is a 100% volunteer organization that works to encourage and facilitate eco-friendly activities that promote a more sustainable environment. We work with families, individuals, and local government to reduce our carbon footprint and global warming, and support native plants and animals by using activities that are easy for citizens to apply.

Examples include sponsoring the Sustain Greenville Farmers’ Market (the only 100% volunteer-led market in the state!), and several recycling and educational events. You are invited and encouraged to get involved in any or all of the following ways:

Interested in learning how to increase plant and animal diversity in your backyard? Attend the "Benefits to Native Plants" Presentation on Saturday, April 22nd at 10:00 a.m. in the Village Hall to learn a bit more about how you can incorporate native seeds into your gardens.
