When you head to The Augusta Club for a community conversation event in Baileys Harbor, you will get more than just a free tree and composting bucket. The Baileys Harbor Community Association is hosting a Talk of the Town event this Thursday, featuring a presentation ahead of a question/answer session and community conversation. The focus will be on the town’s efforts to go green, which include local composting efforts, plans for a new geothermal HVAC upgrade at the town hall and library, and the pursuit of Community Green Tier certification.

The event begins at 6:15 p.m. and runs for about an hour. The villages of Egg Harbor and Ephraim, the Town of Gibraltar, and the City of Sturgeon Bay are among the Door County communities that have achieved Green Tier Legacy status.
