A big thank you to all who came out to volunteer with us from EY in honor of Earth Day! With their help, we were able to cover 2.5 miles of the Towpath near Six Mile Run and collect 54 pounds of litter from along the trail. This was an excellent reminder for everyone to carry in and carry out their garbage anytime you recreate, and to be mindful of our impacts on the planet. Volunteers also managed to remove vines from more than 100 trees and had the opportunity to learn about local ecology from park staff. Thank you volunteers!

🌟🤝 This giving season, we’re thrilled to highlight the incredible public service collaboration between NJ State Parks and Hunterdon County’s Road Dept. (Mt. Airy Garage), Mosquito & Vector Control, and Clean Communities programs.

🚛💼 Our shared mission? Cleaning up a challenging site along the Delaware River in Stockton, NJ. We successfully removed a large dumpster, an empty oil tank, and several tires from a steep riverbank.

🌿💪 This partnership is a perfect example of how public service, when done together, makes a difference for our community and environment. Kudos to all involved for their dedication!
