Green Broad Ripple is making it their mission to “initiate change toward sustainability”. They also work to educate the community about going Green. Some of the organization’s projects include “Green Alleys”, “Urban Gardens” and “Recycling”. The “Green Alleys” project sees alleys as underutilized that could lead to better traffic options. Green Broad Ripple’s “Urban Garden” initiative takes city lots and turns them into vegetable oases. The very first garden was established in 2008 at 61st street between Guildford and Winthrop. And Green Broad Ripple works continuously to create full stream recycling on Broad Ripple Square. Whatever project GBR is working on, it’s sure to improve the neighborhood’s environment.
