Unidos Por el Planeta y ConservAcción: A Latino Conservation Week Celebration

Celebrate Latino Conservation Week at Kaweah Oaks Preserve! 🌎

Latino Conservation Week comes alive under the valley oaks with music, food, and hands-on discovery for the whole family. Build a soil filter and watch water move through it, decorate rocks, dig into a Leave No Trace scavenger hunt, and stop by community tables sharing everything from environmental health resources to upcoming outdoor adventures. Sierra Linda Ballet Folklórico takes the stage, giant Connect 4 and cornhole keep the games going, and tacos and aguas frescas keep everyone fueled. Free and open to all ages. Bring the whole family, and spend the afternoon celebrating the land and water that connect this valley’s communities.
