Clean Air Methow has organized this event in partnership with the Okanogan Conservation District, Fire Adapted Methow Valley, and Okanogan County Solid Waste. The Washington State Department of Ecology will be waiving fees for green yard waste brought to the Twisp transfer station for the three days of the event.

This FREE Green Yard Waste Disposal event provides Methow Valley residents with an alternative to backyard burning of their yard debris. Residents can come to the Twisp Transfer Station to dispose of their yard waste for this special collection 10am-3pm on 4/28, 5/3 and 5/5.
