Ready to roll up your sleeves and make a difference? Join The Walls Project for Earth Day Baton Rouge 2025, a high-energy, hands-on celebration happening Saturday, April 19, 2025, from 9 AM to 2 PM at the beautiful Baton Roots Farm in BREC’s Howell Community Park (5509 Winbourne Ave).
This isn’t your typical Earth Day. We’ve turned up the volume on sustainability with DIY gardening workshops, interactive eco-art experiences, recycled paint giveaways, and get-your-hands-dirty service projects that connect people to the land and to each other.
Whether you’re a kid, a parent, a local creative, or just someone who loves the outdoors, there’s something for everyone. Plant something. Paint something. Learn something. Let’s grow a greener Baton Rouge together.
"The continued support from the Sprouts Healthy Communities Foundation empowers us to create impactful programs that resonate with the Baton Rouge community," said Dr. Ashlyn Harrison, Executive Director, Louisiana, at The Walls Project. "Earth Day Baton Rouge 2025 is an opportunity for individuals and families to come together, celebrate our environment, and take actionable steps towards a sustainable future."
Earth Day Baton Rouge is the second of four reactivation events hosted by The Walls Project annually. The first was MLK Fest, where hundreds of volunteers transformed local spaces with murals, gardens, and cleanups. Now, we’re carrying that same spirit into spring, with even more dirt, creativity, and impact.
This event is free and open to the public, thanks to support from Sprouts Healthy Communities Foundation, City of Baton Rouge, Louisiana Healthcare Connections, Humana, SouthArts and the National Endowment of the Arts, Capital One, Giraphic Prints, the USDA Forest Service, Green Sheen, BREC, and Red Cake Events.
