3 Ways to Celebrate Earth Day:

1. Plant something.

2. Get dirty.

3. Pick up some trash (or dog poo.)

Do it on your own, with friends, or with Stewardship Pemberton and the Pemberton Creek Community Garden crew.

Earth Day

But this year, Earth Day is also enfolded by Pitch in Week, April 21-27, Canada’s largest environmental improvement campaign.

More than 622,000 Canadians participate in the program each year. Village of Pemberton Council and staff will participate in a 20-Minute Makeover of the property surrounding the Village office (Pioneer Park, Wye Lands and Prospect Street).

Individuals and community groups who would like to Pitch-in around Pemberton will receive garbage and recyclables bags from the Village, and we’ll arrange pick-up and disposal of the bags after your event.

How to participate:

  1. Recruit your neighbourhood group
  2. Choose a date, time and location to clean up
  3. Register with the Village of Pemberton online or at the Village office, 7400 Prospect Street

Questions? Contact the Village of Pemberton office at 604 894 6135 or admin @ pemberton.ca
