Welcome Green Community Partners

This spring, both Silver Spring Green and Green Wheaton became officially incorporated in the State of Maryland.  They join Poolesville Green, which was granted 501(C)(3) status last year.

The organizations are generally modeled after Bethesda Green (but with their own distinct flavor).  They are unique in that they intentionally connect the dots among businesses, residents, civic groups and government; they stay clear of advocacy and policy debates; and seek to simultaneously enhance our environment, economy and shared sense of (local) community. Bethesda Green was established about three years ago.
