Our Neighborhood Yard Sale was held Saturday June 6th. Thanks to all who opened their properties for this event.
As part of the National Night Out celebration later in this year, the GFNA collected used books during the yard sale as part of the Farms Free Press Literacy Outreach Program If you have books to donate, please email neighbor@mygfna.com . We gladly took any leftover clothing as well as small household items. Please remember that Big Sisters of Rhode island requires that all items be boxed or bagged for collection. Further information will be distributed when you sign-up.

Our Earth Day clean up was a great success, as can be seen when walking or driving by the three sites that were spruced up by teams of dedicated neighbors. Those sites are Squantum Pond, Doake's Hollow on Spring Green Road, and the lookout on Kristin Court. Thanks to all who donated their time and talents to make this a very productive and enjoyable project for all. Pictures are viewable on the Events page..
