It’s easy to participate and we provide all the gloves, safety gear, trash grabbers, and bags.


When you arrive near the post office at 19420 CA-116, Monte Rio CA 95462 at 9 am, check-in with your team leader who will be wearing a yellow safety vest.

From the check-in location, volunteers will be able to choose various walking routes along the highway based on where the trash is. Supplies will be provided if needed at check-in, but you are encouraged to bring gloves, water, sturdy shoes and other supplies if you have them.


This section of the road is close to the Russian River that runs just alongside the highway. Let’s grab the trash before rains and wind sweep it into the waters where it can cause harm to people and animals. We look forward to working together for a cleaner watershed!

About Russian Riverkeeper

Location:

PO Box 1335, Healdsburg, CA 95448, US

Mission Statement

Russian Riverkeeper serves all communities by restoring and sustaining the health of the Russian River, its tributaries, riparian corridors and uplands through citizen action, public education, scientific research and expert advocacy.

Description

Russian Riverkeeper has been fighting since 1993 to ensure a thriving river system and your rights to fishable, swimmable and drinkable waters.

With your help, Russian Riverkeeper will:

  • Adapt to climate change. As we face another year of unprecedented drought, we must go beyond emergency water conservation and permanently use less water in our homes, our businesses, and our agriculture.
  • Defend our rivers, streams, wetlands, and ocean by providing science-based advocacy and by influencing policy to better protect our watershed.
  • Tackle trash. Our Clean Team removes trash from the river 5 days a week and mobilizes hundreds of volunteers to help at special cleanup events throughout the year. Trash strangles our river ecosystem, our ocean, and the local economy that depends on clean water.
  • Restore healthy habitat to reduce flooding, keep our water clean and abundant, increase public recreation, and improve our climate resilience.
  • Educate & empower youth to become our next generation of environmental stewards.
