THE GREEN SPOT

An Introduction to the GREEN SPOT


The Green Spot is the Sustainability Resource Center of Pacific Grove. It is located on the corner of Pine and Forest Ave., and is now officially open for all to visit.

At the Green Spot, Sustainable PG will showcase a demonstration garden, environmentally friendly products found in Pacific Grove, and exhibits offering interactive approaches to green building products, renewable energy, nontoxic household waste, recycling, rain water catchment and composting.

With help from SPG volunteers we have really made some big changes at the site across the street from the PG Police station. Stop by to see the bare root trees we have planted (apple, pear, cherry, apricot, blueberry), Artichokes, cover crop, onions, nasturtium, and more... ( at the corner of Forest and Pine. ) Here are some pictures of the work done as of March 2008.

There are still more needs for seeds and plants as shown on the Green Spot News page.

To see a calendar of all the Green Spot activities, as well as other local sustainable activities look at the SPG Calendar .

( The Green Spot is also the offices of Applied Solar Energy and the Surfriders Foundation, Monterey Chapter ).
