The YMCA of Greater Brandywine and Senator Carolyn Comitta are partnering to host the 2024 Earth Day Festival at the Upper Main Line YMCA. 

This special event also recognizes the 26th anniversary of the environmental education program at the YMCA and is free and open to the community.

  • Grab your shovel and get ready to dig into the fun! Families are encouraged to bring shovels on Earth Day and volunteer to plant over 60 native trees and shrubs to benefit UMLY's Cassatt Preserve. A "Shovel Check" will be available (like a coat check!) so families do not need to carry their shovels around the festival.
  • Vendors from across the County in the areas of environmental education and sustainability will provide activities, exhibits, presentations and more.
  • Explore the YMCA’s Cassatt Preserve, home to 20 acres of woodland, wetlands, a meadow, stream, pond and PA’s first conservation easement.
  • Meet the animal ambassadors of the Nature Center, Raptor Center and Barnyard.
  • Participate in family-friendly STEM and Environmental Education activities including recycled art, bird walks, canoeing, bird house building, tree-planting, stream studies and more - PLUS face painting and live music performed by Meadowlark, Em McKeever and John Shirey.

This event is free and open to the public. Registration is not required. If you'd like to help volunteer, please register today!

The whole family is invited to join us for lots of service projects and lots of fun on Earth Day!  

Sponsor and vendor opportunities are available. Sponsors should contact Brian Raicich at 610-647-9622 or braicich@ymcagbw.org to learn more about available opportunities.
