On Monday, November 24th, the Somers Point Green Team partnered with McGowan Landscaping to plant new trees along the SP Bike Path. The additions include a 10-foot Red Oak, a male Ginkgo, and a young Black Pine.

These trees will not only enhance the beauty of the bike path but also support local ecology by providing essential food and habitat for native insects, caterpillars, and birds for years to come.

Growing a greener Somers Point, one tree at a time! 🌳💚

On Tuesday, November 18th, John Helbig and Dan Myers from the Somers Point Green Team attended the Sustainable New Jersey luncheon in Atlantic City — where the team was proudly recognized for achieving Bronze Certification for 2026-2027.

Earning this certification is no small task. It reflects the team’s ongoing commitment to making Somers Point cleaner, greener, and more resilient. On-going sustainability efforts include reviewing proposed developments for environmental impact, adding native plantings to neglected areas, planting trees along the bike path, increasing community awareness, and much more.

This certification also plays a key role in helping Somers Point qualify for state grants that support projects aimed at improving the quality of life for all residents. Congratulations to the Somers Point Green Team on this meaningful achievement! 🌿💚

The Construction Microplastics Information booth and ladies in green are friends from the Margate Green Team. Municipalities state-wide attended the luncheon and were recognized for their respective certifications.

On Friday, November 14th, members and volunteers of the Somers Point Environmental Commission (SP Green Team) rolled up their sleeves to clean up trash along the future Somers Point DeFeo Lane Nature Trail.

Pictured are Gary Papouschek, John Helbig, Bill Reinert, Dan Myers — and even a friendly box turtle — helping clear a large pile of debris!

The Somers Point City Council has wholeheartedly supported this project through grant funding, Public Works assistance, and more. Once completed, this city-owned property will feature a walking and jogging trail network, along with a scenic overlook along Patcong Creek.

A big thank-you to John Helbig, Chair of the SP Green Team, for spearheading this incredible project — and to all the volunteers and City Council for making it possible! 🌿💚

Noticed any new trees and shrubs along the SP Bike Path? John Helbig and his merry band of brothers planted them. Enjoy!
