On Community Day, on September 23, FOWWOS will give away native plants, in a plant swap. Folks can give a plant and get a plant at the event. They will be handing out brochures that will have an open space map, the history of FOWWOS, trail maps, and several other pieces of info. about the importance of native plants and how to care for them.
Unfortunately, the native deer eat the native plants. But, green onions, strewn about not planted, pepper and other strong spices will ward off deer if you remain diligent.
Last year, the WW farmer’s market was the 4th favorite market in the US and the 1st favorite market in NJ. For 2023, cast your vote for WW farmer’s market so that they retain their ranking as New Jersey’s #1 Market.

Parcels that connect allow for trails and create more possibility.

YES!!!!! Every time I asked the mayor to pursue this solution he said that developers would never do it. They don't make enough money. I repeated the crucial part being that they would be "non-profit" and my plea fell on deaf ears.
