Honoring Earth Day in 2025

April 12, 2025

We only get this one beautiful planet, so let’s show her some love! Volunteer with TART Trails for their Spring Work Bee April 19 from 10am-12pm at various locations throughout the trail network. Little Traverse Conservancy will have two work bees of their own: one on April 16 from 9am-1pm at Tanton Family Working Forest Reserve, and one on April 22 from 9am-4pm at Offield Family Viewlands. And Grass River Natural Area kicks off a week of Earth Day fun on April 19 at Ethanology in Elk Rapids with tree and shrub saplings to take home for every donation. April 22, GRNA hosts their annual 6am Big Sit to get in touch with nature, and on April 24, they’ll have a Nature Trivia Night at 6pm at Short’s Pull Barn. Last but not least, save the date for Cadillac’s Earth Day Celebration on April 27.
