EcoKids is a family-friendly event focused on educating the youth about sustainability through engaging activities.
“After decades of hosting Earth Day Pensacola, we wanted to create a second event in the Fall that was youth-centered, family-friendly, and totally free. In 2023, we hosted the first ever EcoKids event.
EcoKids is a family-friendly event focused on educating the youth about sustainability through engaging activities. Educating children about sustainability is a key to creating a better future.”
– Founders of Earth Day Pensacola/EcoKids
