This April, we will toast to all we’ve accomplished together and look ahead to what is next for Recycle Utah. Join us in celebrating our beautiful planet and the work we do together to protect it.

Our 2026 Earth Day Celebration will be held at Green Business Program member, Twisted Fern, on Earth Day, Tuesday, April 22 from 5 to 8 pm. Enjoy locally-sourced food, delicious drinks, and a silent auction featuring local businesses, all in support of Recycle Utah’s resource conservation mission. 

Tickets are $75 through the end of March and $100 starting April 1st. This is a 21+ event.

Recycle Utah has always been powered by people who believe local action creates real change. This celebratory event will directly support Recycle Utah’s critical recycling services, education, outreach and advocacy as we open a new chapter for our organization. 

Join Race to Zero Waste (R20W) and partners GreenEducation.US, National Recycling Coalition, and Park City for the 2026 Zero Waste Forum. The event will take place at the Jim Santy Auditorium located at the Park City Library. The multi-day event is an opportunity to collaborate and network with local, national, and international zero waste practitioners. The program builds on conversations around zero waste, during Earth Month. The Zero Waste Forum will feature engaging expert speakers, a sustainability tour, Zero Waste Expo, youth led toxic-free living workshop, networking, an award ceremony and much more. 

The Zero Waste Forum is a platform to address the challenges of the next decade, bringing together diverse stakeholders to explore scalable, equitable, collaborative solutions that support circular economy goals across communities, businesses, and municipalities.

Join us on Tuesday, May 12th from 6-8pm at Swaner EcoCenter to learn from local experts on the intersection of land conservation and water.

Our friends from Swaner Preserve & EcoCenter and Summit Land Conservancy will discuss the importance of open space and land conservation for water in Summit County.

Wetlands like the Swaner Preserve are extremely rare in the state of Utah, and provide valuable ecological services like improving water quality, recharging groundwater, providing critical habitat and educational activities, and so much more! Learn about the history and importance of this protected open space with a short guided tour onto the Preserve. Spring brings over 100 species of birds and wildlife to the Preserve- you never know what you might see!

This event will take place outdoors both on the back deck of Swaner EcoCenter and on the Preserve. Please come dressed for the weather.

The evening will include a short walking tour of the preserve – closed toe shoes and long pants are recommended. We will be walking on generally flat terrain with a slight uphill grade. Tall grass, uneven footing, and wet ground may be encountered.

Driving and parking information can be found on Swaner’s website. Please carpool or take alternative methods of transportation if possible.

This event is 21+. Registration required. Donations appreciated!
