It’s human nature. A clean town attracts business.

Over the past few years, more businesses (H&S Environmental, Ted’s Montana Grill, Energy Federation Inc. and Green Park Mortgage) have participated in The Westborough Community Land Trust’s annual Earth Day cleanup.

Here’s what Rt. 30 at Rt. 9 looked like before and after last year’s cleanup.

This year we’re again asking for business support for an event that only takes a few hours to complete but makes a night and day difference that lasts a full year. Please consider lending a hand on Saturday, April 26th.

We’ll have two start times: 6:30 a.m. to clean Bellows Rd. and Westmeadow Plaza, and 9:30 a.m. to clean identified sites throughout town. For more information or to report a site in Westborough in need of cleaning – or to schedule a date to participate other than April 26th that suits your needs, please contact me, Bruce Tretter, (508) 446-7790 or earthday@westboroughlandtrust.org.

Together, let’s make Westborough shine!
