Pine Ridge is the FIRST Pearl Neighborhood in Virginia Beach!

Pine Ridge is incredibly proud to be the first, the benchmark, Pearl Neighborhood in Virginia Beach!

PEARL HOMES are places where people care about our community and our environment and want to do what they can to live responsibly and help protect our resources. Our daily habits and decisions make a difference. Whether you have installed a rain garden or rain barrel, made a pledge to “scoop the poop” or switched to a reusable water bottle and reusable grocery bags, you are helping to bring our waterways back to life, and we would like to recognize your efforts. It takes a community to restore and protect our waterways.

In Order to Obtain Pearl Neighborhood Certification a neighborhood:

  • Must offer a Lynnhaven River NOW education opportunity for your neighbors (was held at our Spring Civic League Meeting 2018 & June 2018 Garden Club)

  • At least 30% of our homes must be Pearl Homes. (80 of 266 homes)

  • We must have at least one environmentally focused community project. For example: Community rain garden, pollinator garden, kitchen garden etc. (Native Tree Planting at the front entrance, Spring 2019)

How YOU Can Become a Pearl Home!

After completion of your application, qualifying homes will receive your free garden flag. Once we reach 80 Pearl Homes, Pine Ridge will be presented with a beautiful Pearl Neighborhood banner!

Please help us reach our goal by applying for a Pearl home designation using a paper application or online at lrnow.org. Once completed, you will be presented with a free garden flag. Your address will then count toward our 30% designation goal.

Thank you for helping us with this responsible project!
