Welcome to the 29th annual Source to Sea Cleanup! Our goal is to remove as much trash as possible from our waterways, riverbanks, and communities across the 410-mile Connecticut River watershed in NH, VT, MA, and CT. Get your gloves and trash bags ready and join thousands of volunteers today! All ages welcome.
28 Years of Cleanup Efforts
Since 1997, groups of volunteers have come together to remove trash from local rivers in support of clean water and healthy habitats throughout the Connecticut River watershed – in New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. Cleanup efforts help to advocate for environmental policy that stops pollution at the source.

While the Source to Sea Cleanup is all about picking up trash in our waterways, streets, and parks – it is also part of a greater effort that includes recycling our waste, speaking up for legislative actions to reduce pollution, and advocating for producers to develop products that are less harmful for the environment.
