Swamp Angel

Cindy Duarte sent in our next Swamp Angel, nominating Carla Marsh of Everglades City and her Trash Talkers. Carla recruits friends and neighbors to pick up trash, fishing line, discarded clothing, etc., from the Chokoloskee causeway (mostly around the bridge) into Everglades City, as far north as the Everglades City welcome sign. 

Sometimes by car, sometimes on foot, sometimes she begs use of a golf cart. There have been occasions where there were so many bags full of trash at the causeway, she contacted Collier County to go pick them up! 

The Trash Talkers are iterations of friends, seasonal residents, grandchildren, or anyone she can recruit willing to help clean up the place we call home.
