Just the Facts...

Welcome to the Nashville Earth Day Blog!

There's just one month to go until the big April 17th Nashville Earth Day Festival celebrations at Centennial Park.

The park seems like a fitting place to celebrate one of Earth Day's core issues of Sustainable Development considering that Centennial marked the beginning of Nashville's public park system.

Here's what you need to know about the Nashville Earth Day Festival -

- The event will be held rain or shine in Centennial Park on West End Avenue in Nashville

- Festivities will take place from 11 a.m. until 7 p.m.

- Admission is free!

- The festival will include displays from community groups, environmental organizations, farmers, eco-friendly businesses and government agencies.

- There will be live music all day long. This is Nashville after all!

- This will be a family-friendly event including entertainment, children's activities, educational programs and even a scavenger hunt :)

- Look for the Merchant Village where you can help the planet while also helping small businesses by buying eco-friendly products directly from the entrepreneurs who make them.

- Many kinds of food and drink will be available for purchase.

- There will be lots of recycling opportunities.
