Join your neighbors on Saturday May 7th, in celebrating the beauty of Vermont while helping to make the Barre City community a cleaner, greener, place to live. This year's event has been named the Lucas J. Herring Green Up Day in honor of his years of dedicated service to the city of Barre and his commitment to Green Up Vermont.

On May 7th student volunteers will be distributing bags in the parking lot behind City Hall from 8 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Green Up bags will be available for advance pickup April 15th - May 6th at the Barre City Clerk's Office Monday - Friday and at ReSOURCE Barre Monday - Saturday.

Filled bags can be dropped off on May 7th & 8th in a Green Up Day dumpster located in the Merchants Row parking lot behind City Hall.

Staying Safe while Greening up: Wear gloves (gardening gloves work great), tie up bags when full to keep litter from spilling out, check for ticks and wash your hands afterwards. Use caution when working along roads and do not handle needles. Needles should be clearly flagged and reported to the police for proper disposal. If needles can be handled with tongs and put into a puncture proof receptacle (like a plastic jar) and left for the police - even better!

Download the free Greenup Day App at Google Play or Apple App Store to track which areas still need to be cleaned up. More information can be found at: https://greenupvermont.org/ or by contacting Guin Fredriksen at gfredshs@buusd.org.
