In celebration of Earth Day, the Fishers Island Conservancy and the H.L. Ferguson Museum hosted a community cleanup on Friday, April 19. We were thrilled to welcome about 15 volunteers who gathered at the Museum before heading out to two locations: the Chocomount Cove trail for invasive plant removal, and the Parade Grounds for a beach and roadside cleanup.

Under sunny skies and with clippers and gloves in hand, participants worked together to care for some of Fishers Island’s most cherished open spaces. We’re incredibly grateful for the turnout and teamwork. Thank you to everyone who took part in making our island cleaner and more resilient.

Let’s keep the momentum going. Whether it’s Earth Day or any other day, we encourage everyone to pitch in by picking up litter and respecting our natural spaces!
