During Earth Week\, 20 communities across Central Kentucky will come together to remove litter from streets\, parks\, neighborhoods\, and waterways—demonstrating the power of collective local action. \nSince its inception\, Main Street Clean Sweep has grown into one of the region’s largest coordinated volunteer efforts. Over the past twelve years\, more than 150 community cleanups have been organized\, resulting in over 150\,000 pounds of litter removed from the environment. What began as an Earth Day effort has evolved into a regional movement that strengthens community pride while protecting natural resources. \nVisit our Facebook Events page to find a cleanup near you: https://www.facebook.com/bggreensource/events URL:https://bggreensource.org/event/main-street-clean-sweep-2026/ CATEGORIES:Bluegrass Greensource Event ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://bggreensource.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Screenshot-2026-03-04-at-8.25.37-PM.png ORGANIZER;CN="Bluegrass Greensource":MAILTO:info@bggreensource.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Kentucky/Louisville:20260425T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Kentucky/Louisville:20260425T140000 DTSTAMP:20260417T024558 CREATED:20260323T165625Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260323T174707Z UID:29341-1777111200-1777125600@bggreensource.org SUMMARY:Become a Certified Kentucky Watershed Watch Sampler!
