Listening to our community

In January 2021 and 2022, we had a community listening session where we heard from individuals who are passionate about sustainability and the environment. It was a great opportunity for us to identify ideas to move forward with like-minded community members. 

Our 2023 Listening Session is coming up on Wednesday, January 25, at noon at Blacksburg Library. We will share a summary of 2022 accomplishments and give attendees a chance to help plan 2023 programs and priorities, so please plan to join us! Virtual participation is available by registering through the Zoom link tinyurl.com/SBlistens2023

Here are the ideas that were discussed during this fun and interactive community listening and brainstorming session in 2022.

You can view the sticky notes collated by themes here.


Sustainable Blacksburg is making a January listening session an annual tradition so we can keep building on our progress and incorporate new ideas for the new year.

We welcome ideas, comments and inputs from the community through out the year. Please use this form to tell us about your ideas.
