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.”
