ANNUAL EVENTS

Come to TEAC's Eco-Fair!

The Tarrytown Environmental Advisory Council (TEAC) and the Village of Tarrytown are hosting our annual Eco Fair on October 5, 2019 at Patriots Park from 10:00am to 2pm to take place during the TaSH Farmers Market. 

Come learn about reducing your Carbon Footprint, Composting, Food Scraps Recycling, Home Energy Savings, Healthy Lawns, Pollinator Pathways, Native Plants, Electric Vehicles, and more.  There will be something for the whole family including kids activities, games, live music, and fresh local food vendors at the lively farmers market! This will be a Zero-Waste event, so watch where you throw that cup or wrapper.

The Eco Fair brings together community organizations and local businesses to educate and share ideas to enrich our Villages and enhance the environment. It is an opportunity for community members to increase awareness and engage on environmental issues. The goal is to highlight things that we can all do at home and in our own neighborhoods. 

Nissan Leaf EV Discount Program Extended
 
As part of an effort to accelerate electric vehicle transportation alternatives throughout the United States, Nissan New Rochelle and Sustainable Westchester are offering eligible customers a special opportunity to purchase the 100% electric Nissan LEAF at a large savings.

If you live, work or go to school in Westchester County you are eligible to save up to $14,500 on a 2019 Nissan Leaf or up to $12,000 on a 2019 Nissan Leaf Plus. This program has been extended until January, 2020.

This is a great opportunity to switch to an all-electric car, and save money both on the up-front costs and on fuel. Imagine never having to pull into a gas station again! And remember, Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow are both enrolled in the Westchester Power CCA, that supports the build-out of renewably-sourced electricity.

"October is the fallen leaf, but it is also a wider horizon more clearly seen. It is the distant hills once more in sight, and the enduring constellations above them once again. "
