Pledge Summary

The Village of Yellow Springs, Ohio--population 3700--is located in SW Ohio. Home of Antioch College, we are 20 minutes east of Dayton and a quick hour west of Columbus. Glen Helen, a 1000 acre nature preserve with over 21 miles of hiking trails along with creeks and waterways that feed into the Little Miami River, runs the length of the village and connects to the Clifton Gorge State Nature Preserve and John Bryan State Park. Yellow Springs has a Wildlife Habitat Community public Facebook page with 467 members--check us out! Many villagers are re-wilding their properties under the leadership of our village Environmental Commission and NWF Certified Wildlife Habitat signs dot village yards. Mayor Pam is happy to add the Mayors' Monarch Pledge to our village efforts for the 3rd year in support of increasing habitats for Monarchs and other pollinators.
