SUMMARY:Historic Newton Plant Swap
DESCRIPTION:Bring surplus plants\, tools\, seeds\, gardening supplies\, or gardening books to the Historic Newton’s annual Plant Swap and take home new ones. \nHow does the plant swap work? \nAs you check in\, volunteers will confirm the number of plants/supplies you’ve brought\, provide you with tickets for that number of items\, and help bring your plants to the swap area. Once you’ve checked in\, you’re welcome to start looking for plants. \nWhen you’re finished you’ll check out with volunteers. They will confirm that the number of items you’re taking matches your number of tickets. After that\, you’re all set! \nIf you cannot attend the event but have items to offer\, you can drop them off at the Durant-Kenrick House and Grounds on Friday\, June 12 from 12-4pm. \nLearn more about the free event. Registering in advance to help in the planning. \nRegister

SUMMARY:The Approaching MA Climate Bill Showdown
DESCRIPTION:The State Senate will imminently take up this session’s major climate bill. Despite many positive provisions\, Massachusetts Climate Action Network (MCAN) has concerns; the largest is that the House version includes a devastating $1 billion cut to Mass Save. Climate advocates must mobilize now to ensure that the bill that ends up on the Governor’s desk contains the best provisions possible. \nMCAN is proud to have Dan Zackin and Mark Dyen of 350 Mass provide a virtual presentation on pressing legislative developments and how you can help ensure Massachusetts remains a leader on climate action. \nThe first hour will consist of the program with a Q&A session\, and then we will open the floor to discussion until 1:30. \nRegister
