Free Community 2025 Earth Day Festival event at the Upper Main Line YMCA with State Senator Carolyn Comitta

The YMCA of Greater Brandywine and Senator Carolyn Comitta are partnering to host the 2025 Chester County Earth Day Festival at the Upper Main Line YMCA.  

This special event also recognizes the 28th 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 bird and bat house building, canoeing, tree planting, stream study, and more plus face painting and live music performed by the Itchy Dog Singers.
  • We are excited to welcome the Lenape Nation of Pennsylvania and Doug Tallamy to this year's festival. Doug Tallamy's talk entitled, "Homegrown National Park," will start at 1:30pm - Register Now
