Miller Place Beautification Projects

The Miller Place Civic Association would like to acknowledge and give a huge thank-you to Kevin Cantwell for cleaning the area around our Welcome sign on Pipe Stave/North Country Road and cleaning and planting at the Welcome sign on Miller Place Road. They are a wonderful improvement.
We also thank the CDM Chamber of Commerce for contributing the flowers.

We would also like to thank other members of our community for their time and efforts in cleaning and planting in Miller Place.

There were so many that we created a new web page to present them.

Special Events

Great Brookhaven Plant-in

May 17th has been designated as the Great Brookhaven plant-in and we will be receiving flats of annuals from the Holtsville ecology site to plant at our discretion. We have ongoing efforts at our Welcome signs, Sylvan Avenue park, the sump on Sylvan Avenue, the island at Miller Place Road and Miller Place/Yaphank road We have plans for the island on Old Rocky Point Road/ Woodhull landing and are looking for volunteers, hoping neighbors will respond to helping out. Last year the highway department cleaned it out, planted grass and will continue to mow. It was unfortunately used as a dump for leaves and branched for many years. Please call or email if you’re interested in participating. This work is very rewarding, especially if it’s an area you pass yourself everyday.

Cedar Beach Cleanup

The annual Cedar Beach Cleanup will take place April 26th from 8AM until the work is completed, usually about 1:00.

Breakfast and lunch will be provided to volunteers.
