Publications
In 2011 Green Door Alliance and the Durham Conservation Associations were consolidated and renamed Green Durham Association to reflect the history and contributions of the two organizations. Newsletters and publications found on this website provide details on significant past activities and accomplishments of both these organizations, therefore material published prior to the amalgamation will not be changed to reflect the amalgamated Green Durham Association entity.
