À propos de nous

Mission: Living Green Barrie’s mission is to guide citizens, businesses and local leaders toward actions that foster sustainability and resilience in our community.

About Living Green Barrie: Formally known as Environmental Action, Living Green Barrie is a registered charity celebrating its 30th Anniversary this year. For three decades, Living Green has been Barrie’s go-to environmental organization. With support from grants, sponsors, donors, and a great deal of volunteer efforts, we have initiated projects and programs that have made Barrie a cleaner and greener city. We started Barrie’s first plastics recycling program, initiated the annual Spring into Clean events, and installed the first Community Garden, just to highlight a few.
