We are on a green mission.

The Westfield Green Team’s mission is to help improve our quality of life and become a more sustainable community – environmentally, socially and economically – in a way that can be sustained to benefit future generations. With the help of Westfield residents and staff, and through discrete initiatives, we can make a difference, in Westfield and beyond.
