Another Successful Earth Week!
May 15, 2026
By Bridget Micieli-Martinez
From Sowing Seeds of Care at the Quogue Wildlife Refuge to expressing our creativity with our friends at the Shine Studios, Earth Weekend was a huge success.
At the Quogue Wildlife Refuge, the day took on a hands-on, educational spirit. Families and visitors of all ages rolled up their sleeves, dug into the soil, planted flower and vegetable seeds, and discovered the joys—and importance—of nurturing something of their own.
Meanwhile, at the Peconic Land Trust’s Bridge Gardens in Bridgehampton, families enjoyed a creative, art-centered celebration. Here, activities focused on painting birdhouses to honor local and migratory birds. This event blended artistic expression and environmental learning, making each painted birdhouse a unique symbol of habitat protection and community participation.
Thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate Earth Week with us!
