More Information

Green Corner is open three days a week during the summer. There are always three volunteers on site – a Greek speaker, an English speaker and one other. It’s a great place to meet new people, to learn about the community and to learn about recycling.

We are always looking for new volunteers both to help out at Green Corner and for Clean Mani activities in general. So if you are interested then we would love to speak to you.
