Join us this Earth Day, April 22, 2025, for a one-day volunteer opportunity to help older adults in need with spring yard cleanup - including raking, weeding, trimming, and more!

In partnership with the Township of West Orange, our nonprofit I Want To Mow Your Lawn - which provides free landscaping support to older adults, veterans, and others in need - is organizing this special Earth Day event. We're calling on volunteers to lend a hand beautifying and clearing outdoor spaces for senior residents in the community.

We'll provide:

Rakes, garbage bags, garden gloves (if needed), string trimmers, and other basic equipment
Soft beverages and snacks to keep you fueled throughout the day

Bonus: If you can bring your own equipment (trimmers, mowers), that's always welcome!

Details:

Meet-up Location: West Orange Town Hall Parking Lot, 66 Main Street, West Orange, NJ
Time: 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM
Rain Date: April 30, 2025

What to Bring:

Closed-toed shoes, long sleeves/pants (recommended)
Gardening gloves (if you have them)
A positive attitude - and readiness to get a little dirty!

We’ll group up in the morning and then head out to homes in clusters for yard work. It’s a great way to give back, get outside, and make a real impact.

Please sign up here to volunteer and be part of something meaningful this Earth Day!

Individuals and groups are welcome to participate. Please note: Media coverage may be present at this event, with permission-based participation only for any photos or interviews.
