Our capstone projects
The Springville Trout Pond
The Springville Field and Stream Club is collaborating with Green Springville to kick off the Springville Community Trout Pond Renovation campaign. A team of volunteers has developed a multi-phase plan. The project includes restoration of the Brook Trout hatchery and brooding facility, as well as dredge the pond to reestablish a quality fish habitat, and to develop the south end of the pond to make it more accessible to the public.
Springville Tree Planting
Green Springville’s Tree Giveaway is a FREE, 100% privately-funded program that provides and plants trees throughout the village of Springville, New York. We’re celebrating Earth Day and Arbor Day with a single goal: to increase the amount of local trees for the benefit of everyone who lives, works, or visits our fantastic village.
We provide the tree and the labor!
EV Charging Station
One of Green Springville’s first accomplishments was to work with the village of Springville towards the installation of electric vehicle charging stations. Green Springville first approached the village with a NYS DEC grant that would provide the majority of the funding necessary to purchase and install the chargers.
