The first Saturday in May is Green Up Day. Folks collect the litter that strewn along roadsides, in parks, on public lands, etc. There is usually an organizer in each community who can provide you with green trash bags. With those bags, you can fill the bag and leave it along the side of the road. Someone will come along later to collect those green bags. Or you can just use your own bags and haul it away yourself. Regardless, it’s a great community event that tidies up the state ahead of summer.

Green up day is indicative of the very best parts of Vermont. It's truly a civic gem, and an excellent community institution.

We were there during Green up day this year. Expected to see green bags everywhere. I think we saw 2 maybe. We also did not see any garbage though so, maybe that's why!
