This year, the Greensboro Association responded to rapidly changing environmental and economic challenges—from back-to-back floods to severe drought—by investing in a stronger, more resilient Greensboro. Thanks to the generosity of our members, we supported essential local nonprofits, launched new community and environmental initiatives, and reinforced programs that keep our town thriving. From pollinator gardens and lake stewardship to community meals and educational programs, the GA’s work continues to connect and strengthen our community.

As we look ahead, we invite you to help sustain this momentum by contributing to the Fund for Greensboro—supporting the people, environment, and spirit that make our town extraordinary.

The Greensboro Association’s Watershed Stewards are dedicated to protecting Caspian Lake through careful monitoring, advocacy, and collaboration with state and local partners. While the State of Vermont currently manages the lake level under a “run of nature” policy, the GA continues to document conditions, submit requests during extreme weather, and conduct regular water quality testing. With drought conditions keeping levels below average, the GA remains focused on ensuring the long-term health of the lake and pursuing opportunities for greater local input in lake-level management.

Over the last two weeks the Upper Lamoille Streamwise team led by Jed Feffer has planted over 500 trees along the Lamoille River in East Hardwick at the properties of David and Gail O’Brian, Lanny and Mary Jane Hill and Zack and Bridget Hoppe.  The trees were purchased with funding provided by the Greensboro Association.  The trees planted, Silky Dogwood, Red Osier Dogwood, Cottonwood, Elderberry, Winterberry, Chokecherry, Speckled Alder and Willow, are all good options for protecting river buffers.

Spring 2025

For many, Spring is a time of new beginnings. The snow melts, the ice recedes, crocuses bloom, and peepers fill the air with their cacophonous song. Lakes across the state shake the lethargy from their shores as both natural and human systems prepare for the hustle and bustle of summer.
