Green Up Vermont

The first Green Up Day is launched statewide by Governor Deane Davis on April 18, 1970. The Interstate Highways close from 9 to 12 for litter pick up by volunteers. Source: Green Up Vermont

Each year, Vermonters across the state gather for Green Up Day, a day dedicated to removing litter from our streets, roads and waterways. It’s an excellent opportunity to meet your neighbors and connect with others while achieving a common goal. This year is Green Up Day’s 50th Anniversary and on Saturday, May 30th, you can help celebrate! Check out their website to get all the up to date information. Our garbage scavenger hunt and garbage grid challenge are designed to help you have fun while doing good. Send us a few photos when you’re done!
