Weed Removal in Downtown Business District

 

Sylvan Heritage Council 
 ðŸŒ±Members of the Sylvan Heritage Council are going to slowly start removing weeds from our downtown business district. 
If you are a building or business owner (or want to help just because) and you’re willing to to take care of your frontage to lighten our load, we’d so appreciate your help!
 We’ve also found an effective vinegar-based weed killer to use, but most of the weeds have to be removed first. 
 ðŸŒ±It’s going to take all of us to keep our downtown looking sharp - and pride in our town matters so much! Thank you for spreading the word!
