There are tons of different ways to get involved in this yearâs Teton Valley Earth Day celebration.
Teton Valley Earth Day, a relatively young multi-day collaborative event hosted by a group of local nonprofits, was forced to go virtual last spring, but the event organizers have decided this year that itâs safe (and fun) to host small in-person workshops and projects across the valley to celebrate community and service.
Some of the service projects happening this week include an in-town clean-up hosted by Downtown Driggs Association, a âhelp recyclersâ morning with Teton Valley Community Recycling at the county transfer station, community garden preparation with the Teton County Fair Board and 4-H (see below), a highway trash pick-up with Rotary Club, electronics recycling opportunities at the library, and a Tetonia Elementary School garden rejuvenation with Full Circle Education.
