Green Business Program
The Village of Patchogue Green Business program is a voluntary program for all businesses within the village. The program is designed to showcase our environmentally friendly businesses for becoming sustainable leaders.
Upon completion of the application, a scheduled site visit with a Protecting the Environment of Patchogue (PEP) committee member will be conducted. The establishment will visually demonstrate compliance to the PEP committee members, which will determine program acceptance. VOPGB membership, gives your establishment a 2 year term membership. The PEP committee will review if a renewal site visit is necessary.
