A $2,000 Sustainable Jersey grant targets the borough's Green Team.
Washington Borough was recently awarded a $2,000 Sustainable Jersey capacity-building grant funded by the PSEG Foundation for its Green Team, which works in cooperation with the Washington Borough Business Improvement District to expand the Washington Borough Farmers' Market.
With combined efforts, the two groups hope to attract more people to the downtown and promote local farmers and small businesses.
The farmers' market offers certified naturally grown fruits and vegetables, pasture-raised pork, lamb and chicken, fresh eggs, local honey products, fresh cut flowers, baked goods and hand-crafted jewelry, candles, soaps and gifts.
