As our former board chair and honoree, Yamile Slebi shared, Princeton is a model town because we know that the decisions we make now will impact the generations who will inherit this place we call home.

We are so grateful for the support of our Spring Green Soirée Partner Sponsor, Eve Coulson & Nelson Obus, as well as our Gold Sponsors, The Téllez - Slebi Family and Penn Medicine Princeton . We hope you will consider adding your name to our list of supporters, too.

Did you know we now have TWO thermal imaging cameras in our Lending Library? 🤯

Check out this testimonial from Mike G. about how easy it was to use to detect heat loss in his home. This tool is also great for summer to check any cool air escaping from windows or doors! 🌬️

The weather was perfect, the music had us dancing, and the community showed up in every sense — tablecloths, garden flowers, great conversations, and pure generosity. Thank you to our honoree, Yamile Slebi, our neighbors, our sponsors and our committee who made the Spring Green Soirée a night to remember. This is what it looks like when a community comes together to lead community change. 🌿✨

Creativity on the catwalk! ♻️ 📸

On Sunday, April 19, 2026, the popular Trashion Show at the Party Like It’s Your Earth Day Celebration returned for its second year! The show was presented by Sustainable Princeton and Morven Museum & Garden in collaboration with Princeton Public Library and Princeton Environmental Film Festival (PEFF).

Twenty participants, across three age categories, designed and modeled original fashion made from items that would otherwise have been discarded or recycled.
