The Chestertown Environmental Committee is exploring several new wildlife and conservation initiatives as it pursues a $10,000 Sustainable Maryland grant that would support habitat restoration, bird-friendly projects and community education. The funding would strengthen efforts already underway to improve natural spaces throughout town. If the grant is awarded, the committee plans to create a “Slice of Life” pollinator garden at Town Hall — a small habitat featuring native plants and flowers designed to support bees, butterflies and other pollinators.
