Join Habitat’s Annual Walk for Housing! Registration begins at 12:00pm at Washington’s Headquarters and the walk begins at 1:00pm.

On the walk you’ll see completed homes, ongoing construction, and be reminded of the progress that is possible when we come together to build homes, community and hope.

The Newburgh Urban Farming Fair is a celebration of fresh food, local vendors, crafts, and farm fun. Attendees will learn about urban farming and gardening and participate in “how to demonstrations” about what they can do in their own yards and neighborhoods.

Many Newburgh groups will have a presence, including Newburgh’s 2024 Environmental Justice Fellows.

Now in its 13th year, the Newburgh Community Cleanup is a city-wide volunteer effort to keep Newburgh clean and green all year long. Hosted by Safe Harbors of the Hudson in collaboration with the City of Newburgh and local partners, the event has had a real and measurable impact over the years: at the first Cleanup in 2011, volunteers removed 17.49 tons of garbage from city streets; in 2024, the total hauled away was only 5.9 tons–a 66% decrease!

Join us Saturday, April 26 on Safe Harbors Green at 9am to check-in; heavy duty gloves and garbage bags will be provided. Please note: this is NOT a bulk pickup day for large items. This event is rain or shine.

For event information, contact Ken Martinez at 845.784.1110, or email kmartinez@safe-harbors.org.
