Westfield, IN (March 28, 2024) - Green Day, a celebration of Earth and Arbor Days, returns on Saturday, April 27, from noon to 2 p.m. at Grand Junction Plaza (225 S. Union Street) hosted by the City of Westfield’s Parks and Recreation Department.

This free event will include local organizations and vendors sharing tips and techniques highlighting green practices and initiatives that can be practiced at home and around the community. Topics include soils, trees, water, invasive species, and more.

The city will give away free native tree saplings while supplies last, courtesy of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources.

Participating organizations include:

  • City of Westfield Parks & Recreation
  • City of Westfield Stormwater
  • Earth Charter Indiana
  • Greenways Foundation
  • Hamilton County Soil and Water
  • Westfield Green Together
  • WM
  • Xanderbuilt Tree Care

“Green Day is an important Parks Department initiative, and we are thrilled that a number of businesses and community organizations are partnering to make this an even bigger event. We work hard each year to be named a Tree City by the Arbor Day Foundation, and events like this help to inform the community of the work we’re doing that they may not see every day,” stated Mayor Scott Willis.

Free public parking for the event is available in the lot at the southwest corner of Poplar Street and Park Street and in designated on-street spots along Jersey, Mill, and Union Streets.
