Join Kootenai Environmental Alliance this Earth Day to honor the wild places that make North Idaho incomparable.
This isn’t just another Earth Day...
...this is a celebration of the wild North Idaho soul.
From the cool depths of Lake Coeur d’Alene to the towering ponderosas of our backcountry, this is our chance to stand up for the places that define us.
Join KEA for a day of local music, hands-on conservation, green resources and inspiration, and our latest efforts to conserve, protect, and restore the Panhandle.
Whether you’re a fifth-generation local or a new neighbor, come help us ensure that the "Great Outdoors" stays great for the next generation.
"Conservation is a state of harmony between men and land."
Aldo Leopold
