Corvallis Community Comes Together for Earth Day Oregon

March 2022

The Institute for Applied Ecology has joined together with Corvallis Environmental Center, Seeds to the SOL, Chintimini Wildlife Center and Earth Day Oregon to celebrate Earth Day with events happening all month long. Earth Day Oregon is a non-profit organization that aims to amplify the work Oregon organizations are doing to improve our environment. In the model, Business Sponsors around Oregon have donated to environmental organizations in honor of Earth Day and show their support for the real work they do to affect the sustainability of our planet.

In Corvallis, our organizations joined together to share out all the events we have in store for our community, and are hosting an Earth Day evening celebration at Common Fields Food Cart & Tap House with engaging displays and booths to connect around our shared work. Follow our Facebook Page - Earth Day Oregon: Corvallis for updates. Not on Facebook? The Earth Day menu below also details when and where to join in on local Earth Day events that are on each organization's website. Contact the organization that interests you. Come out and join our collaboration and do your part for our planet's future. Working together, we can make a bigger impact.

Plant Natives at IAE's Earth Day Volunteer Day

IAE needs volunteers to help plant approximately 2,000 native plants at Herbert Farm and Natural Area, about 5 miles south of Corvallis, Oregon. We will plant Oregon geranium (Geranium oreganum) and narrowleaf mule’s ears (Wyethia angustifolia) and other prairie species. Come do your part for Earth Day, Friday April 22, 2022, and help restore this former farm field into a native prairie to benefit pollinators, birds, and all of us.
