Earth Day is officially on April 22, however there are many events throughout the entire month of April, with most family events occurring on Saturday, April 20th. It’s a great time to take advantage of planet-themed events to reinforce important habits of conservation and preservation in our kids. You’ll find the bulk of community events are focused on community clean-ups and tree-plantings – these events usually free to attend and take place outside. Read on for some great Earth Day events being held across the GTA.
