      <image:title>The Road at Home - It’s Your Turn Turn It Off</image:title>
      <image:caption>Join the campaign to stop idling It happens, we know. You’re picking up a friend, waiting for a food order, or just trying to warm up your car on cold morning — and you leave it running for a little while. It’s easy to let those minutes tick by, but getting into the habit of turning your car off when you’ll be idle for more than 10 seconds can make a big difference. Here’s why: 1. It saves gas. 2. It saves money 3. It saves the planet 4. It makes us healthier5. It makes us smarter 6. It’s good for your engine 7. It’s quieter 8. It’s contagious 9. It doesn’t stink 10. It’s easy</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Road at Home - Join a Reduce Single Use Plastic Campaign</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Dutchess County Single-use Plastic Pollution Prevention Campaign (Dutchess S.U.P.P.P.) was launched in November 2019 and aims to educate and empower local residents, businesses and communities to take action on single-use plastics pollution issues. Single-use plastics are disposable and intended to be used only once, before being thrown away or recycled. They include plastic straws, plastic wrap, plastic cups, Styrofoam®, plastic bags, plastic cutlery/utensils, and some plastic takeout containers. The campaign is a partnership with the Dutchess County Division of Solid Waste Management (DCSWM), Dutchess County Cornell Cooperative Extension, Dutchess County Chamber of Commerce and the Dutchess County Environmental Management Council (EMC).It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Image Credit: Carlos Patino, Dutchess Community College More resources for reducing single use plastic at the Resources Page</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Road at Home - Soak Up the Rain with Rain Gardens</image:title>
      <image:caption>A rain garden is a depressed area in the landscape that collects rain water from a roof, driveway or street and allows it to soak into the ground. Planted with grasses and flowering perennials, rain gardens can be a cost effective and beautiful way to reduce runoff from your property. Rain gardens can also help filter out pollutants in runoff and provide food and shelter for butterflies, song birds and other wildlife. Visit the EPA’s website to learn more.</image:caption>

      <image:title>The Road at Home - DIY Rainwater Harvesting</image:title>
      <image:caption>Water is one of our most precious resources and we are squandering it on a daily basis. As global warming and extreme weather patterns caused by greenhouse gases continue to bite, freshwater conservation will become an even more pressing concern. Many more people around the world may suddenly find themselves with serious water shortage problem. Whether or not you yourself are personally affected by water shortage, harvesting and storing rainwater in your garden is an important step to take on the road to a more eco-friendly and sustainable way of life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Pollinator Pathway - What is a Pollinator Pathway</image:title>
      <image:caption>If you are wondering what a Pollinator Pathway is, it is any public and private pesticide-free corridor of native plants that provide nutrition and habitat for pollinating insects and birds.  Even the smallest green spaces, like flower boxes and curb strips, can be part of a pathway.   The loss of pollinators is alarmingly high, and in decline primarily due to land development and fragmentation, a lack of native plants due to an increase in invasive plant species, and a lawn culture that requires excessive fertilizers and pesticides which offers no benefit to pollinators and other wildlife.   Pollinator species such as bees, birds, butterflies and other pollinating insects are vital to maintaining healthy and diverse ecosystems, and are responsible for the food we eat.  One in every three bites of food we eat is because of pollinators. Without pollinators, we won’t have any food.  You can help.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Pollinator Pathway - Become a part of the Pathway.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Our landscapes have been chopped up or fragmented, through urban and suburban-ization.  The problem is we can no longer support sustainable populations of wildlife in our isolated parks and preserves alone, for more on this please see Dr. Doug Tallamy, University of Delaware Entomologist’s book Bringing Nature Home.  Luckily there is a solution.  If we begin to manage our own yard organically and with native plants, we can use them to connect parks and preserves, creating crucial corridors of wildlife.  That is the idea behind the Pollinator Pathway.  Pleasant Valley recently joined the Pollinator Pathway.org with the reading of a proclamation by Supervisor John DelVecchio.   As a Pollinator Pathway Town we will encourage entities, businesses and residents to participate in creating a safe native habitat, wherever possible, for threatened pollinators that will facilitate pollinator connectivity.  Anyone can join the Pollinator Pathway, it is easy and free.  Just pick a spot in your yard, plant a window box, or some pots with native plants, and they will come; bees, butterflies, hummingbirds and other birds and insects.  Then pull up a comfortable chair and watch and enjoy nature around you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Repair Cafe - REPAIR CAFE COMES TO PLEASANT VALLEY</image:title>
      <image:caption>Don’t Toss It! Fix It ! Spearheaded by Jean Curlee, in conjunction with the Pleasant Valley Climate Smart Task Force, the Pleasant Valley Repair Café will finally become a reality on June 4, 2022 (Please check the Events Page for future Repair Cafés). It took a little longer than expected due to Covid, but we never stopped working and now are excited for the first event. Pleasant Valley is a rural–suburban community distinguished by its three main hamlet areas: Pleasant Valley, Salt Point, and Washington Hollow. Located in the center of Dutchess County it covers a wide area made up of farms, beautiful housing developments and a small town center a perfect location for the community based Repair Café. With the support of the Town Board, the Climate Smart Task Force is moving the Town closer to becoming a more sustainable community. Keeping items out of landfills, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preserving and sharing the skill of repairing in our community. SPONSORS Thank you to our sponsors, the Town of Peasant Valley, Madison’s Pizza &amp; Catering and the many residents and neighbors who have signed up to volunteer their time to assist the mission of the Repair Revolution. “Fixers transforming our throwaway culture.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>Repair Cafe - History.</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Repair Café idea was born in Amsterdam in 2009 and was brought to New Paltz by volunteer organizer John Wackman in 2013. His dedication enthusiasm and success inspired others to launch Repair Café events in their communities. Repair Cafés are free meeting places and they’re all about repairing things (together). In the place where a Repair Café is located, you’ll find tools and materials to help you make any repairs you need. On clothes, furniture, electrical appliances, bicycles, crockery, appliances, toys, et cetera. You’ll also find expert volunteers, with repair skills in all kinds of fields. Visitors bring their broken items from home. Together with the specialists they start making their repairs in the Repair Café. It’s an ongoing learning process. If you have nothing to repair, you can enjoy a cup of tea or coffee. Or you can lend a hand with someone else’s repair job. Repair Café of the Hudson Valley &amp; Catskills is a consortium of program organizers who support the work of repair in their communities. All events take place under the umbrella of a host or sponsoring organization in each town. Repair Café of the Hudson Valley &amp; Catskills has no independent legal or tax status. WHY WE DO IT • To transform our throw-away economy one beloved item at a time • To reduce how much stuff goes into the waste stream • To preserve traditional repair know-how &amp; skills and pass them on • To show the people who have this knowledge that they are valued • To feed our curiosity about "the way things work" &amp; have fun! • To foster community sustainability and resilience</image:caption>
