About Newtown’s Earth Day Festival:

The primary mission of Newtown Earth Day is to foster education and awareness of environmental stewardship through project participation and collaboration with local associations. Organized by Newtown’s Clean Energy Task Force, this annual event will bring together schools, municipal and charitable organizations, sustainable vendors, and no-profits, in a synergistic celebration of good deeds for our space on the planet. The event will also provide a forum for residents of all ages to become more engaged in the collective consciousness and responsibility we all have in the health of our Newtown – and our region’s soil, air, and water.
