Clean Up Green Up

Clean Up Green Up

Community Clean Up Green Up 2022 is a 
WRAP!
WOW– look at the collective IMPACT we accomplished together! Cleaner parks, creeks, neighbourhoods and schoolyards, PLUS hundreds of trees planted and thousands of pollinator seeds dispersed, creating more naturalized, biodiverse habitats throughout Burlington.
 
Thank you to the THOUSANDS of volunteers who participated in #CUGU2022, and to the awesome supply depots: Burlington Centre  and Nature’s Emporium and the wonderful sponsors (see further below) for making this city-wide eco-opportunity possible.
 
Stay tuned for details for Clean Up Green Up 2023 with registration opening in March!

As stewards of the earth, we have the responsibility to honour and respect the four directions, land, waters, plants, animals, and all of the wonderful elements of creation that exist.

We honour all the First Nation, Métis and Inuit people who have been living on the land since time immemorial and we recognize their leadership in protecting and caring for Mother Earth.

In Burlington, our work with the community takes place within the Treaty Lands and Territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, represented by Treaty 14 and 19 and on the traditional territories of the Anishinaabeg (Ah-nish-in-nah-beg), Attawandaron (At-tah-wahn-da-ron), Haudenosaunee (Ho-den-oh-sho-nee) and Metis peoples.

We honour these rightful caretakers of this sacred land surrounding the Great Lakes, and we are grateful for their teachings.

BurlingtonGreen has much to learn from Indigenous People and we encourage everyone to continually learn from and about the Indigenous community where you live, and how we can each meaningfully honour the calls to action for Truth and Reconciliation.
