Organization Information

Mission Statement

To inspire and mobilize a collaborative movement towards an equitable and environmentally sustainable St. Louis region - every day.

Description

Founded as "St. Louis Earth Day" in 2002, earthday365 has built its reputation on its annual St. Louis Earth Day Festival, which is now recognized as the largest Earth Day celebration in the Midwest, but touches over a million individuals through its year-round programming Recycling On the Go and the Green Dining Alliance.

The Recycling On the Go program helps events and festivals in the St. Louis region with recycling and composting, while educating the community about waste reduction. Our Green Dining Alliance program is a restaurant sustainability certification and marketing program to help restaurants on their sustainability journey and to reduce single use plastics. We also started Environmental Justice Days of Action during the pandemic, connecting with community organizations to help them achieve their goals in addressing food apartheid and illegal dumping through neighborhood clean ups and garden days.
