"City of Summit’sTiny Forest"-Donna Goggin Patel, JD

The invited speaker at the April 23, 2024 meeting of the Old Guard of Summit NJ was Donna Goggin Patel, JD. She serves as the chair of the Summit Environmental Commission.
Did you know you can regrow a forest in a few decades in as little as 3-4 parking spaces worth of space? Or that Summit has its own version of a microforest? It's the "Tiny Forest" behind the Community Center (100 Morris Avenue, Summit, NJ)! We learned from Donna about the importance of native species and how dense pocket reforestations can help mitigate climate change in NJ. Donna also discussed the latest sustainability efforts in Summit and other planned and ongoing environmental efforts.
