Welcome to Green Up Vermont

GREEN UP DAY 2021 - Saturday, May 1st

Green Up Day will be held on Saturday, May 1st, 2021. Join us for this much-loved, spring clean-up tradition that activates thousands of Vermonters to get involved in their communities in picking up roadside litter. Last year, together, we picked up 421 tons of trash and over 9,000 tires! Keeping our environment clean is good for our health, good for businesses, and good for our property values. Together we build pride in our cities and towns and teach our youth about powerful civic engagement that affects climate change.Year-round we work to build awareness, generate stewardship and share the positive environmental actions of our partners. Get involved today!

Mark your calendars for Green Up Day 2021 on May 1st! 51 Years Strong!
