Stream Cleanup Project

Grab some friends and pick a day. Join others in keeping trash out of our streams.

 

Stop polluted runoff. Rain rushes down from roofs and across roads, taking oil, dirt, fertilizer, and other waste into rivers and the Bay.

Save water. Use captured rain water to water gardens and lawns.

Educate others. Show others how easy barrels are to install and explain how they reduce pollution.
