Trashy Hour Cleanup: Wheeler Street

UpstreamPgh recently completed Ripple: Environmental Justice Watershed Plan. As part of our community outreach efforts, we learned that trash and illegal dumping is a top environmental concern for neighbors in the Nine Mile Run Watershed. We’re leading “trashy hours” to pick up trash while also exploring waste prevention strategies, distributing info about places that take hard-to-dispose of items like tires, and bringing together neighbors.

We’ll meet on the corner of Wheeler Street and Ferndale Street, and we will provide gloves, trash grabbers, bags and a water jug. Bring yourself and a water bottle!
