About the Green Team

The Green Team was first established by resolution of the Township Committee in April of 2010. Since that time the Green Team has met monthly and worked on a number of initiatives, including:

  • Installment of a water filling station at the high school
  • Construction of a community garden
  • Launch of an anti-idling campaign
  • Publication of "green" articles in the Township Newsletter and other local publications
  • Disseminating "green" educational materials to residents during Earth Day and other Community-related events

Community Garden: One of the Green Team’s largest achievements was the establishment of a Community Garden adjacent to the Senior/Community Center. The project was a joint effort of the Green Team, the Holmdel High School Eco Club, the Boy Scouts and the Township, and was partially funded by a grant from the Fiskars Tool Company and donations from Home Depot.

Certification: The Green Team was awarded Bronze Certification from  Sustainable Jersey. This certification will provide more opportunities for grants to fund other "green" projects for the community.
