Most South Shore towns host community-wide clean up events in the spring. Focused on litter removal, they’re a great way for people of all ages to connect with and care for the local landscape. According to a 2020 study by Keep America Beautiful, there are nearly 50 billion pieces of litter along our waterways and roadways! Ready to help? This spreadsheet shares details on all the clean up events we know about so far. Don’t see your event on our list? Email details to kezia@nsrwa.org and we’ll add it. Curious about planning your own clean up event? We’ve created this handy guide.
