Thank you again to everyone who came out to our Earth Day Cleanup! Our volunteers helped pick up around 50 (!) bags of trash, along with several piles of larger items 💪. So let's hear it for our amazing volunteers and staff members 👏.

The Scarborough Marsh Audubon Center doesn't open until May 23, so in the meantime, check out this Portland Press Herald article about what some volunteers found while cleaning up the marsh.

See everyone at our Opening Weekend Celebration!

For over 40 years, people have volunteered at the Scarborough Marsh Audubon Center’s yearly spring cleanup.

Thank you to everyone who came out to help clean up Scarborough Marsh today!

We had over 60 volunteers working from Route One all the way down to Pine Point. From picking up trash to putting up signs along our nature walk, volunteers worked hard all morning long 💪.

Special thanks to the Town of Scarborough, Maine, Scarborough Land Trust, Maine Department of Inland Fisheries & Wildlife, and to everyone who brought food donations for Project G.R.A.C.E.

See everyone back at Scarborough Marsh for our opening weekend starting May 23!
