Maple Valley - Earth Day Fair

Event description

The Maple Valley Earth Day Fair started in 2024 to celebrate Earth Month in April by promoting environmental practices and activities for kids and adults, and to raise general awareness of local sustainability resources. This is a fun and free interactive event to bring our community together to protect the nature around us. Join the community for another day of celebrating all things green and sustainable - and find some resources to protect your health and the environment, too!
