Thanks to everyone who participated in our April events, including the
Annual Charles River Earthday Cleanup, and the WBOS Festival for the
Earth Recycling Crew! Everyone did an amazing job cleaning up the
parks - we had a record 1500 participants this year. Thanks for all
of your hard work! This month, we're looking forward to hosting
volunteer events for 11 local companies, community groups, and schools.

reseed, and cover it all with biodegradable erosion control fabric.
