More About the Event
The event is hosted primarily by volunteers of the Tahoe Earth Day Foundation, a local non-profit, with the support of other non-profits, local agencies, businesses and dedicated supporters.
The goal of our local Earth Day celebration is to recognize, celebrate and promote the region’s unique beauty and to educate the public on how to preserve and protect our local and global natural resources. The Tahoe Earth Day Foundation is also working to increase the effort around solid waste management and will continue to work towards its goal of hosting a Zero Waste and Carbon Neutral event.
