About Us

We began picking up trash six feet apart with masks on during the Covid-19 pandemic. Our first clean-up had three volunteers show up, but with time and dedication, we've grown to as many as 90 attendees-- all showing up to help make Rhode Island a little more beautiful.

​

Our focus as a group is public green spaces, such as parks, bike paths, waterways, streets, and abandoned lots. Our volunteers come from all walks of life and  backgrounds, and provide an incredibly valuable asset: their time and dedication. We also are proud to have partnered with a variety of organizations on our cleanups, including Ocean Recovery Community Alliance (ORCA), Woonasquatucket Watershed Council, Friends of the Saugatucket, and more!

Litter clean-ups are an important part of what we do, but they're not the only thing! The best way to keep up with upcoming events is by following us on Meetup.
