April 22 is Earth Day! If you are looking for ways to give back to Mother Earth this year, there are several events to get involved in on campus and in the Savannah region.

1.) Earth Day Cleanup – Georgia Southern Armstrong

Armstrong is looking for volunteers for the Earth Day Clean Up on April 22 from 9:30-11:30 a.m. at the Student Union Porch. Help clean up our beautiful campus and earn the opportunity for service hours.

 2.) Wild Seed Market- Savannah Hydroponics & Organics

Savannah Hydroponics and Organics is hosting a Wild Seed Market on Saturday, April 19 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The event will feature plants, herbalists, mushrooms, artists, live music, a food truck and more! 

3.) Canopy Crawl – Savannah Tree Foundation

Savannah Tree Foundation will be hosting an evening tree walk through Forsyth Park and Savannah’s squares featuring arborist Jake Henry. The Canopy Crawl is a great opportunity to learn about the native trees and get connected with the community.

Tickets can be purchased here: Canopy Crawl

4.) Friends of Urban Nature (FUN) Cleanup – Savannah

Friends of Urban Nature Savannah will be hosting a cleanup adventure on April 26 from 9 a.m to 12 p.m.

If a typical trash clean-up sounds boring to you, perhaps a canoe through the marshes or a hike through local trails is more your style!

5.) Forsyth Farmers Market – Savannah

Hit up the Forsyth Farmers Market this Saturday for seasonal, local produce from farmers and vendors. Shop for sustainably grown fruits and vegetables while enjoying the spring air!

The Forsyth Farmers market is free and takes place at Forsyth Park every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. every Saturday.
