NoDa Arbor Day Celebration
Join the NoDa NBA and Greenification Committee to celebrate all the wonderful things NoDa’s tree canopy does for our neighborhood! This family friendly festival features a tree seedlings giveaway, local sustainability market, and a feature film to spark the love of trees.
Street Cleanups
On the first Sunday of each month, the Greenification crew hits the streets of downtown NoDa to provide volunteer hours in a neighborhood cleanup. We provide the trash bags, trash pickers, gloves, and fun ambiance. Monthly Greenification meetings happen at Smelly Cat before the street cleanup.
Garden Walks
Teaming up with the best garden spots in NoDa, we invite community members and friends of NoDa to join us on an annual garden walk through our neighborhood. This event seeks to promote green spaces, native plants, sustainable vegetable beds, iconic neighborhood trees, and pollinator gardens. We partner with local environmental organizations such as TreesCharlotte, The Patio Farmer, and The Bulb to feature their sustainability efforts as well.
