Green & Growing Membership              Membership Online Form            

We invite our area farms, nurseries, and agriculture related businesses in the region to participate in a new initiative - the Green and Growing Members of The Last Green Valley. This organization actively works to promote, protect, and celebrate the many agricultural businesses and farms within the 35 towns that comprise the Quinebaug & Shetucket Heritage Corridor. Over the past several years we have focused on the sustainability of the agricultural community through the work of our Natural Resources and Agriculture Committee and other activities including:

  • Producing Green and Growing - An Agriculture Guide to The Last Green Valley. This brochure provides information on 134 agriculture related businesses open to the public. We also produced a companion piece – Green and Growing Ventures, a map and guide to agriculture in the region.
  • Funding projects in support of local agriculture including a marketing campaign for the Coventry Regional Farmers Market and a consumer survey to determine viability of local dairy products. The survey results helped the dairy farmers that own The Farmer’s Cow moved forward with confidence that a regional market was eager to purchase and support locally produced dairy products.
  • Helping to establish and on-going participation in “Celebrating Agriculture,” a one-day festival showcasing the best of The Last Green Valley’s locally grown and produced products.

We invite our area agriculture businesses to join TLGV Green and Growing Members and enjoy benefits that will provide greater exposure and visibility for their business to the 300,000 residents that live within the 35 towns of the corridor as well as those visiting the region. Benefits include:

  • Use of our new Grown in the Last Green Valley logo
  • Listing on The Last Green Valley website.
  • Listing on The Last Green Valley website with link to your website for members at $250 level and above
  • Listing in the updated issue of Green and Growing brochures (for those agriculture businesses that are open to the public)

Join today and gain from the benefits of active participation in The Last Green Valley, your regional organization dedicated to the sustainability of the agricultural businesses throughout the area.
