Keep Garland Beautiful has a number of events coming soon to help you with your recycling projects and making a meaningful difference!
Garland, TX — The City of Garland’s Environmental and Community Advisory Board met this week, and we have some exciting news to report! Keeping Garland beautiful takes all of us, and there are some opportunities coming up to allow you to both take advantage of some free programs and also volunteer to be part of the solution for our city.
On Saturday, September 13th, there are two events taking place. First, there is the Armstrong Park Butterfly Garden Maintenance project, and you can volunteer to help with this through VolunteerGarland.org.
The second event on Saturday is a free recycling event for which the details are below!
