Join us for PlayCleanGo® Awareness Week 2025!
We’re excited to invite you to join us for PlayCleanGo® Awareness Week 2025, taking place from June 7–14 across Canada and North America. This annual campaign raises awareness about the spread of invasive species and empowers individuals to take simple, effective actions to protect the landscapes we love.
This year’s theme, “Partnering Together to Protect Our Favorite Places,” reflects the spirit of collaboration that defines the PlayCleanGo® movement. As part of a growing partnership with NAISMA (North American Invasive Species Management Association) and CONABIO (Mexico’s Comisión Nacional para el Conocimiento y Uso de la Biodiversidad), Invasives Canada is proud to amplify this message across borders and ecosystems.
Together, we can prevent the spread of invasive species and ensure future generations can enjoy Canada’s forests, wetlands, parks, and trails.
