This weekend we had a fantastic cleanup at a local park. Even though it rained (it always rains here) we had a great turnout and managed to collect 3 full bags of garbage from around the small park.
The experience was lovely, we walked a joked in a group and discussed ways to make it more fun and appealing in future. We were privileged to have a visitor who was knowledgeable in fungi and had done several park cleanups themselves. They suggested that we link a learning walk with the nature clean up and try themes for the events.
After a couple years of working hard to get the right permits we finally, gave up, got out and just did the right thing. We had gloves, tongs and bags along with great attitudes.
Thank you to everyone who made it out, lets hope this is the first of many cleanups.
Blessed be.
