Back Cove Summer Sweep!
Celebrate World Oceans Day with a little Friday morning good!
Join us for the Back Cove Summer Sweep, a community cleanup of Portland’s beloved Back Cove—part of the Casco Bay watershed.
We’ll provide everything you need to help out, including gloves, bags, and grabbers.
All are welcome!
Added bonus? Cinnamon Girl Food Truck will be there!
This local favorite bakes up irresistible homemade cinnamon buns—and during the event, they’re donating $1-A-Bun to Friends of Casco Bay. Every sticky pecan swirl or classic cinnamon roll you buy helps support our work for clean, healthy waters.
Come ready to make a difference and enjoy a bun and the Back Cove!
