The Friends of Binney Park is a non-governmental volunteer advocacy group endeavoring to support projects and programs and to preserve and enhance Binney Park in Old Greenwich, Connecticut for the
benefit of the community and the public.
The Friends of Binney Park functions independently from other organizations but works with the Town of Greenwich to establish long range plans, best policies, and practices. It also communicates information about Binney Park to its members and the public.
FOBP volunteers have worked on educational walks and signage, invasive plant removal, and numerous planting projects including a holly grove, daffodil hillside and pollinator pathway.
Friends of Binney Park is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization and entirely volunteer-operated, so every donation directly supports our ongoing initiatives. Although there are currently no membership fees, donations are welcomed.
