What's Sustainability?
Sustainability is the practice of conserving natural resources and protecting the environment in order to give
present and future generations the highest quality of life possible.
About Us
Sustainable Winchester is a nonprofit
organization founded for the purpose of educating and raising awareness about sustainability so that residents,
officials, and community organizations can be educated and empowered to take action in their day-to-day lives to
incorporate sustainability into our community.

You're invited! Our meetings are open to the public.
We meet on the first Tuesday of every month, from 7-9 pm in Town Hall, 71 Mt. Vernon Street,
at the big table in front of the Clerk's office. There we develop current projects and discuss
new issues.
