Cosponsored by the MJCC and the Jewish Federation’s Climate team, meet dozens of environmental organizations and discover resources for actions you can take. A series of speakers will talk about forestry, electrification, native plants and climate friendly foods.

All are welcome! ASL interpretation will be provided for speakers. An arts activity area will be available for both children and adults.
