Community cleans up for Earth Day

May 5, 2026

Neighbors at Henlopen Landing near Lewes cleaned up their community April 18, in honor of Earth Day.

The majority of what the volunteers picked up was cigarette butts, political signs and real estate signs that had blown into the woods, according to resident Susan Potter.
