Check out a few pictures below of our volunteers from our fall events. Please follow our page for more to come in the new year. Our work will continue in January with roadside cleanups. Starting back in March, we look forward to receiving new nominations for Yard of the Month. Happy Holidays!

Keep Barrow Beautiful has once again met the qualifications to receive the President's Circle Recognition Award for 2025. We are glad to serve Barrow County in promoting cleaner and more beautiful communities. Thank you to our volunteers, passionate board of directors, and county and community partners for another great year.

For Barrow County residents only, Keep Barrow Beautiful is hosting its Fall 2025 Collection Event on Saturday, November 1 from 9 a.m. until 12 p.m. at Victor Lord Park, 82 Maynard Street in Winder!

Being the second event of the year, this will be a limited event for residents to have another opportunity to safely dispose of electronics, appliances (no freon), scrap metal, mattresses, and more at no cost. After this limited event, it's anticipated that the next full event will take place in May of 2026.
