Burton is calling for the annual Burton Clean Up Days, which started years ago with a crew of company employees picking up trash on their local mountain. Over the years, the event has grown into a movement of like-minded snowboarders cleaning up their personal playgrounds around the world. This year, Burton is partnering with #EUGreenWeek and Protect Our Winters. All responsible snowboarders (and everybody else) are invited to clean up an area they love and enjoy on June 12 and 13, 2021. For every cleanup post or story tagged with #burtoncleanupdays and @burtoneurope on Social Media, Burton will plant a tree in cooperation with @onetreeplanted.
