Conservancy for Ridgewood Public Lands

Our main Spring/2013 Project covers the stretch of land that runs along North Broad Street, east of the train tracks. This is an area that has been severely neglected for many years. Our project is divided into two parts. The first would be to improve the area either side of the main train staircase by removing the overgrown cedars and bushes either side of the staircase and planting a four foot bed of daylilies and two hawthorn trees, along with repointing the staircase and painting the railings and lampposts. The second would improve the area from south of the staircase to the end of East Ridgewood Avenue by installing a sprinkler system, filling in the missing bushes and trees along the train tracks and planting five dogwoods in the grassy area.

In order for our Spring/2013 Projects to be a reality, we need to increase our fund-raising. We ask you to join our membership. The Village of Ridgewood has a long tradition of excellence; its remarkable history is vividly reflected in its parks and open spaces, enjoyed by generations of residents and visitors. The Conservancy is another example of that desire to produce positive change and make life better for everyone.

We thank you for your time and generosity,
