In 2025, thousands of attendees gathered for a full day of live music, hands-on activities, environmental education, and engagement with local businesses and nonprofit organizations focused on sustainability and stewardship.Last year’s theme, “Our Power, Our Planet,” emphasized collective responsibility and renewable energy, reinforcing the idea that positive environmental change begins at the local level.

When we reduce waste, promote sustainable practices, and protect our local environment, those choices ripple outward and make a real difference. ”The 2026 celebration will feature:• Local vendors and eco-conscious businesses• Environmental education and interactive exhibits• Live music and family-friendly activities• Opportunities to connect with organizations working to protect the region’s natural resourcesLocation: Historic Grandin Village, 2014 Memorial Ave SW, Roanoke, VA, 24015This event is hosted on Mobilize.View on MobilizePrimary event communications come from Mobilize.
