Join us for a community cleanup along the Schuylkill River Trail on the Phoenix Iron Canal Trail at the Black Rock Sanctuary. We will start at Black Rock Boat Launch on RT 113 and clean down to Black Rock Dam. Let’s work together to protect our beautiful river and keep our trails litter-free!
Bring your friends, family, and community spirit — supplies will be provided. Let’s make a difference, one bag at a time!

RERERE Mission Statement
Follow Best Practices for Recycling of Plastics
Plastic was a great invention of the 20th century, but now we are forced to pay a steep “bill” because we have used it irresponsibly. ReReRe Plastics (a non-political, volunteer local group) was formed in 2020 by like-minded individuals who believe that saving the planet is a marathon, not a sprint.
We exist to:
1. Educate and motivate citizens of all ages.
2. Encourage the reduction of plastic waste by Reducing, Reusing, Recycling AND Refusing single-use plastics.
We believe that Single-use plastics are a major contributor to pollution of our oceans, towns and countryside – as well as our food and drinking water. Although changes to current manufacturing processes are being developed, small collective actions are a path to a healthy planet.
“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” Dr. Seuss, The Lorax
Our Team’s Vision
The Phoenixville Green Team and Phoenixville Area Transition have chartered a combined effort with the mission of reducing, reuse and recycling. This combined effort is focusing on numerous initiatives in the Phoenixville community, in our restaurants and schools and supporting initiatives at the state and national level including :
- Ban Single-Use Plastics in Borough
- Green Schools Alliance
- Break free from plastics movement/BFFP Pollution Act
- Rights of Nature Movement
