Hundreds of volunteers of all ages, accessibility levels and backgrounds will tackle 22 projects at 16 different MetroParks locations this Saturday during MetroParks’ annual day of service, Adopt-A-Park.
Projects will include litter pick up, invasive species removal, tree planting, garden maintenance and more. These projects improve the environment and beautify the region.
“It’s the perfect occasion for folks to welcome spring by spending a day outdoors with their friends of family giving back to the environment,” said Jenny Hymans, MetroParks volunteer services manager.
In 2023, more than 252 pounds of landfill litter was cleared from area greenspace and parks. Additionally, 100 pounds of recycled materials were collected and diverted from the landfill.
