Beach Cleanup for Mother’s Day

May 11 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm

Pick up beach cleanup supplies, refreshments (including fresh Bagelry bagels), and join us on Bellingham’s waterfront to prevent trash from getting into Bellingham Bay! 

Sunday, May 11th from 11:00am to 1:00pm
Maritime Heritage Park (meet by the fish hatchery off C St. Map here)

RSVP below!

To combat plastic pollution in the Salish Sea, we host beach cleanups — as well as cleanups along rivers and lakes — throughout Whatcom and Skagit counties, providing cleanup equipment and a place to connect with like-minded community members.

Plastic pollution is a concern for human health and wildlife everywhere, and has even been discovered in drinking water and table salt worldwide. Recent research found that Pacific Ocean juvenile fish have been consuming microplastic particles in their first days of life, with not-yet understood health consequences.

Thank you to the Rose Foundation for Communities and the Environment and Waste Action Project for supporting this work.
