Volunteers joined us last weekend for a Downtown Cleanup! ๐
Together everyone helped remove over 300 pounds of litter! ๐
This is our last cleanup for a while as the summer heat is already out in full forceโ๏ธ
Remember you can continue doing your part all summer long by switching to reusable water bottles, skip the straw, and making sure no trash gets left behind as you soak up the summer sun! ๐๏ธ
Make sure to subscribe to our monthly newsletter and keep an eye out for Plastic Free July events!
