🌿 The 2027 Great Virginia Greenup 

Communities Work Together for a Cleaner, Greener Commonwealth

From the first day of spring through the first day of summer, Virginians across the Commonwealth roll up their sleeves for the Annual Great Virginia Greenup.

Communities clean roadsides, parks and waterways; plant trees and pollinator gardens; recycle unwanted materials; restore public spaces; and bring neighbors, businesses, schools and organizations together to make Virginia a more beautiful place.

As part of Keep America Beautiful’s nationwide Great American Cleanup campaign, the Great Virginia Greenup demonstrates what can happen when thousands of individual actions become one statewide effort.

💚 See the Impact from 2026

The numbers tell an incredible story — but they represent much more than pounds collected, projects completed or volunteer hours contributed.

They represent people who cared enough to show up.

Across Virginia, volunteers gave their time and energy to improve the places where they live, work and play. Every cleanup, planting, recycling event and beautification project contributed to a cleaner and greener Commonwealth.

🇺🇸 A Cleaner, Greener Legacy

The 2026 campaign was especially meaningful as communities across the Commonwealth prepared to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary.

Our goal was simple: help ensure that Virginia marked this historic moment by leaving something lasting behind — cleaner communities, healthier public spaces and a renewed commitment to caring for the Commonwealth we call home.

Thank you to every volunteer, organization, community, business, affiliate and partner who helped make the 2026 Greatest Virginia Greenup possible.

You made Virginia shine.

Thank You to Our 2026 Sponsors

The Greatest Virginia Greenup would not have been possible without the businesses and organizations that invested in cleaner, greener communities across Virginia.
