Spring Litter Bugs Me

March 27-28, 2026

Our roadside clean-up effort in coastal Marin has expanded to help keep our roadsides free of trash throughout the year. Litter Bugs Me is now a biannual event and a great way to get our members and local community out on the ground to make a difference for the wildlife and habitats in the West Marin watershed. 

In partnership with Marin County, we are now recruiting volunteers to help clean up the roadsides ahead of the annual spring and summer roadside mowing season. Roadside mowers shred trash left on the ground and shredded trash is much harder to clean up and threatens the health of terrestrial and marine wildlife. Let’s work together to help to prevent the formation of microplastics in our watersheds, and keep West Marin clean and healthy - for us and the abundant wildlife that thrives here.

The Spring Litter Bugs Me roadside cleanup event will be held in March 27-28 in various locations in West Marin.

Sign up as an Individual Volunteer or as a community group Volunteer Team.

Volunteers and groups can choose a date and a roadside to clean up.

Volunteers can borrow any cleanup supplies needed (like reusable buckets, bags, gloves, grabbers, and safety vests).

We recommend wearing a sunhat, sunscreen, layered clothing that can get dirty, and closed-toed shoes.

PLEASE TAKE PHOTOS and share them with EAC through this link.

Additionally, please let EAC know an estimate of the volume (number of bags and/or bucket-fulls) of trash and recycling you and your team collected.

Thank you for helping to protect the lands, waters, and biodiversity of West Marin!
