Happy November Falls Church Forward,
We hope you are enjoying the cooler temperatures and leaf season! See our upcoming events, current initiatives, and plans for 2026 below!
🍂 🍁 Leave the Leaves!
Check out our website to learn more about why leaving your leaves is good for the environment and your yard. If you have a Leave the Leaves yard sign, now is the time to post it! If you would like a yard sign to help spread the word, send us an email or use this form. Last year the city collected 400 tons fewer leaves than the year prior and your efforts helped contribute to that reduction!
🛠️ 🚏 🚍️ REMINDER: Bus Stop Bench Build, this Sunday!
Sunday, November, 16th 2 pm- 4 pm RSVP for details
Join us to build and paint benches that will be placed around Falls Church bus stops that don’t have seating. No building experience necessary. RSVP here!
👩🌾 🚜 Expanded Farmers Market?
Wednesday, November 12th at 7pm, Community Center Art Room
The Recreation Parks Advisory Board will be discussing the possibility of running a pilot to expand the farmers market onto Park Ave or Little Falls St. Come show your support for additional small businesses joining the market, shared streets, and turning our farmers market into an even stronger community hub! Feel free to give some remarks during the public comment period, but even your presence will show that our community supports a more vibrant space for vendors and shoppers! Email us if you plan to come, or if you can’t make it let us know you like the idea!
👋 🏠️ Community Ambassadors
Community Ambassadors help welcome new neighbors and strengthen relationships among residents across the City. Our goal is to have ambassadors in every neighborhood and building in FC. Apart from being a friendly face and welcoming neighbors, ambassadors help plan events and get the word out about upcoming initiatives. Email us to learn more or sign up to be an ambassador!
🎊2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣6️⃣🎊
The leadership team kicked off this month with a retreat to plan 2026. Stay tuned for an updated calendar that will have regular member meetings, monthly happy hours, our yearly signature events and more!
See you soon,
Naudy, Pat, Evan, Andrea, Justine, Ross & Letty
