Member Organizations

As a coalition, a key part of the work that we do, and its effectiveness, is the strength of our member organization network.

“SCGC is a key player in the rising tide of effective, matrixed and coordinated responses to the unprecedented attacks on Ontario’s environment, its communities and our collective future.
Provincial and regional groups each bring their skills and experiences to the effort and SCGC stands out as a smart, nimble and effective player in the Simcoe region, which also brings its key learnings to the attention and benefit of other organizations across Ontario in a truly team building fashion.”

Tim Gray

Executive Director, Environmental Defence Canada

The Simcoe County Greenbelt Coalition is a not-for-profit organization and proud living wage employer.

Established in 2015, SCGC enables collaboration between various Simcoe County and provincial organizations in efforts to promote understanding of the important role Ontario’s Greenbelt plays, and, to encourage its preservation and expansion.

All members of our coalition have agreed in principle to this pledge:

“A healthy environment is critical to our communities’ future.  Farmland, water and natural heritage are key components of a healthy environment and thriving economy, and they need better protection.

Thus, I/we pledge to support the expansion of the Greenbelt in Simcoe County, so that current and future generations can benefit from clean water, local food and green spaces.”
