Berrien County will be offering farmers, greenhouse operators, and others a chance to properly dispose of unwanted and outdated pesticides this month. The county will hold a Clean Sweep Collection event on Wednesday, June 29 in Benton Harbor. To get rid of those unwanted chemicals, registration will be required, and the deadline is June 15. To sign up, get a form from Berrien County Parks Department Environmental Property Manager Jill Adams by calling 983-7111, extension 8234, or stop by the Conservation District or MSU Extension office. Upon registration, participants will be given directions to the collection site. Clean Sweep is funded by a Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development Grant.
