Join us to help clean up litter in our watershed!
See our events page for scheduled clean ups and see recent event highlights below.
We have adopted two segments of the NW Branch Trail and lead and support clean ups across the watershed. We welcome neighbors who want to organize cleanups along the NWB. Our cleanup committee can help with logistics and supplies. Check out our how-to and contact our clean up committee to get started!
9/13/25: Cleanup at Broadacres Local Park. Cleanup leader Nick Clements and our eager and energetic volunteers cleaned up trash scattered throughout the park and two homeless encampments. We removed close to 1,000 lbs of trash.
At the University Hills Duck Pond and Lane Manor Park cleanup in Hyattsville, cleanup leader Ben Simasek has two valuable loads 9/18/22.
From the looks of the contents of that clear bag, someone had a beer party in the Northwest Branch woods. 11/6/21
