GREENFIELD, MA - Greenfield residents who want to plant a shade tree in their front yard this spring are invited to put their name in for a drawing for a FREE tree. Residents are also invited to join in planting the trees to celebrate Arbor Day, on Saturday, April 24.

It is 'Trees Are Terrific...and Energy Wise!'"

Let’s change the conversation. Let’s talk about what we want - not what we don’t want. On January 2, the Recorder ran an article about Massachusetts solar energy program for 2010.
