Morgan Hill Earth Day Festival

Morgan Hill’s annual Earth Day Festival returns Saturday, April 25, with a free five-hour community event at the city’s Community and Cultural Center. (morganhilltimes.com) The festival is scheduled for 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 17000 Monterey Road in Morgan Hill. The City of Morgan Hill and the American Association of University Women’s Climate Education and Action Committee are organizing the event. (morganhill.ca.gov) Organizers say the festival will include sustainability and climate-action booths, food trucks, plants and crafts sales, and free bike repairs. The city’s Environmental Services team is listed as the host or partner on the city calendar. (morganhill.ca.gov) This year’s event is described as Morgan Hill’s fifth annual community Earth Day festival. That places it in a local run of spring events that city and volunteer groups have staged at the Community and Cultural Center since at least 2022. (morganhilltimes.com) The local American Association of University Women chapter has made climate outreach a recurring part of the festival. Its 2026 event page says the group is again partnering with the city to promote “climate awareness and practical action” in the community. (aauwmh.org) Other public agencies are using the festival to reach residents on specific land-use and conservation plans. The Santa Clara Valley Open Space Authority says it will use the event to share proposed work on habitat restoration, public access and local agriculture in Coyote Valley. (openspaceauthority.org) Past editions have followed a similar model. City listings for 2024 and 2025 show earlier annual Earth Day festivals in Morgan Hill, and the Morgan Hill Times reported on the 2023 event after it drew families to booths and hands-on activities.

The setup stays simple: show up between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. at the Community and Cultural Center. (morganhill.ca.gov)
