Celebrate Earth Day with the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy by removing litter from one of Detroit's most-utilized greenspaces: the Dequindre Cut Greenway!
This “come all” volunteer event will focus on removing litter from the Dequindre Cut Greenway and surrounding streets. Volunteer for a few focused hours or or casually collect litter as you walk. We will provide gloves, trash bags, and a limited number of trash pickers and rakes. Once done, tie your bag and leave it along the side of the Cut or street – our cleaning team will pick it up later!
Volunteer check-in will be located at the Woodbridge, Lafayette, Gratiot, and Wilkins entrances to the Dequindre Cut Greenway. Gloves, trash bags, and a limited number of pickers and rakes will be available. Masks will also be available upon request. TMC will meet at the Lafayette entrance if you'd like to join us.
