The goal of The South Lake Tahoe Earth Day Festival, a volunteer-run, non-profit event, is to recognize, celebrate, and promote the region’s unique beauty and to educate the public regarding 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.

The local Earth Day celebration is one of the largest environmental education events in the area. The event provides residents and visitors with an opportunity to learn about the various environmental issues that affect South Lake Tahoe. The South Lake Tahoe Earth Day festival 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 festival recognizes, celebrates and promotes our unique environment by educating the public about the preservation and protection of our local and global natural resources. This is a free, family-friendly event open to organizations and vendors that engage the community in a constructive and positive manner.
