6th Annual Earth Day Celebration

SFA's Earth Day Celebration is an outdoor festival sponsored by Campus Recreation's Outdoor Pursuits program, the Campus Recreation Sustainability Committee, the SFA Student Sustainability Coalition, SFA Gardens, the Pineywoods Native Plant Center, Nacogdoches Naturally and Nacogdoches community entities including The Healthy Nacogdoches Coalition and Keep Nacogdoches Beautiful.

The vision guiding this celebration is to provide opportunities for members of the SFA student body and the Nacogdoches community to foster a sense of environmental stewardship while celebrating the world in which we all live. Held amongst the beautiful setting of the Pineywoods Native Plant Center, participants will enjoy informational booths, engaging speakers, organized activities for kids of all ages, delicious FREE food, music and more.

This Earth Day celebration will be presented alongside the SFA Spring Garden Gala Plant Sale, so guests are encouraged to come out and enjoy both events! Join us in celebration while discovering inspiring ways to live simply and sustainably.
