Earth Fest 2025 was our most successful yet, drawing approximately 500 attendees! Students, staff, and faculty engaged with local organizations, picked up free native plants, and learned about proper waste sorting from the Zero Waste Ambassadors. The star of the show was the debut of two new Museum of Tomorrow exhibits—SIM Mateo and Electra House—which educated visitors on clean energy and appliance electrification. A big thank you to Peninsula Clean Energy for supporting Earth Fest and making these exhibits possible!
