57 Broad Street Holden, MA  01522     (508) 829-5380

As part of our goal to help pollinators and wildlife have food, shelter, nesting, and a place to raise their young, using Native Shrubs,  we worked with Sharon Hart at Busy Bee to sell garden club members with 10 different Native Shrubs and 7 different Native Perennials at a  20% discount.  The plants are beautiful and thriving.  Fifty  Six plants were sold to 14 members.

Environmental Action Committee of Princeton MA.



In the fall of 2017, the Princeton Select board
formed a new seven-member town committee, the
Environmental Action Committee (EAC). This
committee was formed in response to voter approval
at the May 2017 Annual Town Meeting of Article
29, which called for an EAC that would create “an
Environmental Action Plan that would advise and
set goals and recommendations for the Town with
regard to energy and environmental considerations.”


You can find them at: www.town.princeton.ma.us/environmental-action-committee
Be sure to check out their newsletter!


Chris Samoiloff ,  from the EAC.  and Dot Odgren, WGC, wrote up The  2022 WGC Native Plant Sale Catalog for the Native Plants being sold with Busy Bee Nursery in Holden, MA

The May/June issue of Princeton's Environmental Action Committee's The Green News is all about pollination. Featured author Dot Odgren, Wachusett Garden Club President, will introduce us to a well-known and beloved pollinator, the Eastern Black Swallowtail Butterfly. Then she’ll take us deeper into the world of pollination and the important role it plays in life here on earth.
