Market Square in Welland will play host this year to the city's Earth Day Extravaganza.
The fun kicks off on Saturday, April 18th, at 8 in the morning during Welland Farmer's Market, with free reusable Market tote bag, seed kit, and other eco-friendly gifts available. There will also be a charity BBQ in support of the Niagara On Ice hockey team who are going to the 2026 Pro-Am hockey tournament this month in Alberta.
Residents can also register to receive one of six different tree saplings that will each have their own pickup date between April 12th to 19th. Orders can be placed online or at the Welland Community Centre.
