👉 WE NEED YOUR HELP - PLEASE SHARE THIS MESSAGE WITH FRIENDS! Join the Granby Land Trust for our Fourth Annual 🌎 Earth Day Roadside Cleanup, April 24 - 27! Last year, more than 125 volunteers like you 💪 helped us pick up more than 3,549 pounds of trash covering 52 miles of roadside in Granby. Let’s do even more this year! This is a DIY event – you simply choose the street or neighborhood you'd like to tidy, then shoot us an email at info@granbylandtrust.org to let us know where you plan to work so we can track our reach and send you an email with some more info a couple days before the event. You provide the manpower; we’ll provide the dumpster. Many hands make light work. Invite your family, neighborhood friends, book club, nonprofit organization, youth group, sports team, church group, or any other group to get involved and make a positive impact on our town! Send us a photo (at info@granbylandtrust.org) so we can use it to inspire others. And once you’re done, if you’re over 21, you’re invited to Lost Acres Vineyard for a free glass of wine 🍷(go to granbylandtrust.org to learn more). Let’s make a difference on Earth Day 2025!
