Created by Rock the Green and in collaboration with 23rd Annual Milwaukee Riverkeeper Spring Cleanup, volunteers are welcome to join the 7th annual Earth Day Celebration.

Instead, the concert will be pedal-powered by the cyclists from The Velo Femmes, Black Girls Do Bike, and Cadence Cycling Milwaukee. Try organically-grown food from local vendors, which is served on biodegradable plates. This event will also teach you about the effects of landfills, education of the ecosystem, and the impact you can make on the environment.
This Earth Day, celebrate by participating in these local events!
