A group of volunteers will be out cleaning up the Burke-Gilman Trail next week in honor of Earth Day.
On Saturday, April 27, the Ballard Ave store Eco Collective is hosting the trail clean-up, starting at Gas Works Park and moving west along the trail to Ballard.
“We hike the Burke Gilman Trail almost every day, and it makes us so sad to see all the trash and litter that gets left behind,” the organizers write in the event info.
On the day of the clean-up, they’ll meet in the parking lot of Gas Works at 10am. Eco Collective will provide buckets and picker-uppers, but they ask that volunteers bring their own gloves, snacks, and water. They’ll plan to spread out along the trail, but will meet back at the store at 5201 Ballard Ave at noon.
