Trash Free Gulf cleanup at Copperfield Nature Trails!

Join APF and your neighbors at Copperfield as we take part in the Trash Free Gulf campaign to turn the tide together in keeping our local waters clean - this project is a part of a larger effort across Texas to work towards a Trash Free Gulf! We'll spend the day learning more about this effort and how our trash end ups in the Gulf as we work towards ridding Walnut Creek of litter! 

What to Bring

• Plenty of drinking water and fluids to stay hydrated throughout the day. Electrolyte beverages and snacks encouraged!

• Please wear comfortable, weather-appropriate gear that can get muddy - this will be a dirty workday!

  • Wear sturdy, closed-toed shoes.

  • Recommend wearing long clothing and pants with ankle coverage for protection.

  • Recommend sun and bug protection - don't forget your hat, bug spray and sunscreen!

Where to Meet : We'll meet at the Blankeny entrance at 9 AM to get started with introductions and our task for the day! Willing to get rugged and work along primitive trails? please meet at the Peggotty trail entrance: Peggotty Trail Entrance

Parking : There is street parking near both trail entrances

Accessibility: Please note that our activity for the day will involve walking on uneven terrain, slopes and wet/muddy surfaces. 

We hope you'll join us for this fun day of learning, working and building community!

In the event of dangerous inclement weather such as lightning, hail, or strong winds/ rain, APF staff will direct volunteers to vacate the site immediately.
