A celebration of renewal, sustainability, and community growth.
The Earth Day Festival is the Core of Volunteers’ annual community kickoff event — a vibrant, outdoor celebration dedicated to restoring the land, reconnecting neighbors, and reminding everyone that change begins in the soil beneath our feet.
This event transforms a day of environmental awareness into an interactive community experience. Families receive free plants, trees, and garden supplies, while local farmers, artisans, and musicians come together to share food, culture, and connection.
The Earth Day Festival is where our mission meets the public in the most tangible way possible — hands in the dirt, smiles in the sun, and trust grown one seed at a time.
This event embodies the Core’s belief that rebuilding trust begins with service and shared experience.
Planting a tree, growing food, or tending a garden are simple acts that symbolize hope, sustainability, and cooperation.
Our goal is not just to give things away but to equip families to create growth that lasts.
Each seedling or tool distributed becomes part of a living reminder that the Core’s work doesn’t end with disaster relief — it continues with renewal.
By combining local agriculture, music, and culture, the Earth Day Festival celebrates both the land we share and the diversity of the people who care for it.
Every plant we give is a promise to keep growing — together.
