On Saturday, April 20th, at MacArthur Park, La Mesa Parks and Recreation partnered with EDCO Disposal, Pam Rader, La Mesa Village Association, San Diego Community Power, and the City of La Mesa to bring the community together to celebrate Earth Day with a fun-filled fair. 

The Earth Day Fair featured educational and sustainable activities, electric vehicles and buses,  worm composting, community garden tours, electric landscaping tool demonstration, interactive vendors, food, DJ, and entertainment. Children and families were able to enjoy fun hands-on activities focused on sustainability and environmental conservation such as seed planting, pine cone bird feeders, garden demonstrations, arts and crafts, and face painting.
