The Open Space Council is excited to take the lead as the main organizer of the #TrashBash alongside our partners from Great Rivers Greenway, MSD Project Clear, the River des Peres Watershed Coalition, and Earthways Center. Through coordinated efforts, we annually host the #ConfluenceTrashBash.
*These are part of an extensive effort to provide land and water clean-ups at various sites throughout the Missouri and Mississippi River Confluence and their watersheds in the Spring and the River des Peres and its watersheds in the Fall. These clean-ups help create better habitats for our native species and clean water for our community.
