HAPPY International Plastic Bag Free Day!!

Why is this an international day? Plastic bags are one of the most common pollutants, often ending up in waterways where they pose a threat to ecosystems.

Consider using reusable bags, cloth bags or other sustainable alternatives, and think green to help Keep Montgomery County Beautiful!

🌼🐝 We’re still buzzing from the celebration of Urban Meadow Community Park, and we at Dayton Regional Green were absolutely thrilled to be a part of it!

ManCo Property Services transformed unused space into a beautiful green oasis that supports pollinators like bees and butterflies, increases biodiversity and provides neighbors with a peaceful place to connect, recharge and enjoy nature.

A space for the community, by the community!

🌻 The stunning bee sculpture was funded through a $10,000 Special Project Grant from the Montgomery County Arts and Cultural District, helping local ideas take root and grow.

We are inspired by ManCo’s real commitment to sustainability and community. Stop by and see how art, nature and neighborhood pride come together! 💛
