Bring in your plant containers!
The Sacramento Zoo is partnering with Village Nurseries in Sacramento in helping our community stay green. Village Nurseries will be reusing used 1, 5 and 15 gallon plant containers. Bring your used containers to the Zoo or into Village Nurseries, and the nursery will donate credit to help the Sacramento Zoo further beautify their grounds, and to spread their message of sustainable living.

Over 3,400 visitors came out to enjoy Earth Fest 2009! Here is a slideshow of the event.
