Why a Mason Jar for PRG?

PRG has chosen the Mason jar as part of its logo,  and as the name of its newsletter too. After all, a Mason jar is a traditional way to keep good things good – and so it symbolizes PRG’s mission to help preserve what makes Greene special. 

(Looking closely at the letter “U” that appears in the logo, you’ll see it’s the famous Golden Horseshoe, a symbol of Greene County that harks back to the Spotswood Expedition’s crossing of the Blue Ridge here in 1716.)
