Red River Cleanup and Buckthorn Removal Event – April 21

Celebrate Earth Day Weekend with Us at MB Johnson Park!

Join us on Monday, April 21 at 4:00 PM at MB Johnson Park in Moorhead for an afternoon of community, stewardship, and fun! Together, we’ll be gathering trash from the shores of the Red River and clearing invasive Buckthorn from the nearby forested areas.

Participants are encouraged to wear sturdy clothing, leather gloves, and footwear suitable for muddy or wet conditions, especially for those helping closer to the shoreline.

Families are warmly welcomed! We’ll have a spring egg hunt and other fun activities for children to enjoy while adults and older kids pitch in.

After the work is done, head over to 824 Main Ave., Fargo for a potluck and buffet meal. Donations for the buffet will be gratefully accepted.

Help us care for our beautiful park, enjoy some springtime fun, and share a great meal with neighbors and friends. We hope to see you there!

Please RSVP if you plan to attend the meal!

This event is brought to you in collaboration with Moorhead Parks, River Keepers, NW Regional Sustainable Development Partnership,
