Families are encouraged to bring shovels on Earth Day and volunteer to plant over 60 native trees and shrubs to benefit UMLY's Cassatt Preserve. A "Shovel Check" will be available (like a coat check!) so families do not need to carry their shovels around the festival.
This is a rain-or-shine event. Some activities may be moved indoors if needed.
