This is a nice reminder that all the small things you do for the environment are making a huge difference! 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋

Keep planting Milkweed, stop unnecessary spraying, and leave the leaves! 🍂

Thanks to Scout Troop 978. That’s Anthony with the American Flag who completed his Eagle project this spring at URC. The Scouts with their parents cleaned and reset a respectable number of Veteran headstones May 3, 2025. They used D2, same monument cleaner they use at Arlington National Cemetery. Photo taken on Memorial Day 2025 at URC's annual ceremony to honor our fallen heroes.
