Celebrate Earth Day by supporting local students and using multi-modal transportation to explore the natural and manmade beauty throughout the master planned community of Summerlin®!
The two-day celebration of healthy decisions kicks off on Friday, April 21, with the popular giant Student Farmers Market organized by Green Our Planet in partnership with Clark County School District returns to Downtown Summerlin® from 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. This event celebrates the educational value of teaching gardens and healthy eating. The public is invited to purchase produce grown by more than 600 student farmers at 60 schools throughout Las Vegas with proceeds benefitting garden programs at participating schools.
Green Our Planet, the local nonprofit that helps schools valley-wide to plant and operate teaching gardens and the organizer of the student farmers market, is actively involved in assisting several schools in Summerlin with their gardens funded by The Howard Hughes Corporation.

“Downtown Summerlin also has its own pollinator garden located in front of Banana Republic, and we encourage shoppers and visitors to make a visit to the garden a part of their Earth Day schedule that weekend,” said Danielle Bisterfeldt, SVP, Marketing and Consumer Experience, Summerlin. “Summerlin is proud of its history of environmental stewardship, and we invite everyone to celebrate Earth Day with us at Downtown Summerlin.”
And on Saturday, April 22, the Tour de Summerlin returns as one of the valley’s most popular cycling events for all ages and abilities. Presented by The Howard Hughes Corporation®, Summerlin and Downtown Summerlin®, Tour de Summerlin is expected to draw more than 500 cyclists.
