Rome Clean and Green envisions Rome, NY as a clean, green and beautiful place to live.

Each year, we work with many volunteers on beautification and greening programs that impact our community annually. Our actions lead to native species plantings, sustainable community gardens including fruit and vegetable gardens, tree plantings, urban forestry, vacant lot transformation, graffiti abatement, fighting blight, and more– all of which results in positive, lasting impact in Rome, NY.

Learn about our programs to help you take action in our community.
