Thank you Metrowest Daily News for the great article on our unveiling of new Green Infrastructure for Milford Town Park.

“The association's work has been going on for over a decade. It received a grant worth more than $400,000 to design and build two rain gardens and an infiltration system, aimed at fighting impervious surfaces. Grants were funded by the Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness Program,” writes reporter Tom Benoit.

"These urban design solutions mimic the natural water cycle to stop runoff from polluting our rivers and flooding our homes, as well as make our neighborhoods more resilient to climate change, create wildlife habitat, cool our neighborhoods, and beautify public spaces," said Communications & Outreach Manager Julia Hopkins.
