I've got Norco Bigfoot from the 90s, which has been my winter bike, but also my grocery-getter, do-it-all utility bike.
Earlier this spring, during quite a rainy day, it helped with my community cleanup :)
Tongs were mounted to my Wald basket mount with a voile strap, and both my Arkel Orca front pannier and Arkel TrailRider rear trunk bag (shown with a rain cover on it) helped to carry any PPE, bags, snacks, and anything else that was needed that day.
