“Utica’s tree canopy is one of the glories of the city,” GreenUtica Executive Director Gina Pearce said in a press release. “Trees clean our air and reduce carbon dioxide. Parks promote physical activity, reduce stress, and strengthen communities. The name GreenUtica demonstrates our dedication to improving the parks and our environment and reflects our commitment to the city of Utica and the people who call it home.”
As part of its rebranding, GreenUtica unveiled a new mobile-first website, www.greenutica.org, that features user-friendly navigation that allows people to easily explore Utica’s park system. The site’s features include a searchable “things to do” section including all the city’s parks and information about their natural environment and history.
“Utica is evolving,” she said. “Changing our name to GreenUtica is our way of evolving with the city. We look forward to finding creative ways to enhance the quality of life for all within our community and to our continued partnership with the city of Utica to achieve this goal.”
