Welcome to Der Town

The Leavenworth Community Earth Day Fair is a free, annual celebration of Earth Day and our shared connection to the natural world. In partnership with the Icicle Creek Center for the Arts, this year’s event brings together art, music, and environmental stewardship through live performances, local artists, upcycled art, educational booths, activities, vendors, and food for purchase. Join the community in celebrating Mother Earth while learning about local initiatives and enjoying a vibrant day outdoors.

📚 Join us for stories, songs, rhymes, crafts, imaginative play, and all-around fun! 🎶 This program is designed for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and their adult caregivers. Our Musical Story Time offers children the opportunity for language and literacy development as well as social-emotional growth, through stories and music. Meet friends and make new ones every Tuesday at 10:30!

Stop by to pick up information and talk to a representative about the childcare programs provided by Chelan Douglas Child Services Association, including: Early Head Start for pregnant women and children from birth to three years old, Head Start/ECEAP for children aged three to five, and childcare services are available for children from birth to five years old.

Do you love the beautiful natural areas and gardens at WRI? Are you interested in learning about the native plants that grow here, and ways to protect them and the ecosystem they are a part of? Join our newly rebranded Nature Menders Volunteer Group! You will learn all about the common invasive plant species that threaten the local native plant and animal communities here in Leavenworth, all while helping to increase biodiversity at WRI. Tools and gloves will be provided but bring your own if you have something special you prefer using. Dress is layers appropriate for the weather, bring your reusable water bottle, and get ready to get your hands dirty! Nature Menders will meet weekly during Spring and early Summer on Tuesdays from 8:30am-10:30am. We will meet at the far end of the parking lot by the Raven and Nest sculpture, at the top of the Native Plant Garden. Stay for as little or as long as you like. Your help is greatly appreciated! The more hands the merrier when it comes to caring for our native plant neighbors. Please email Tiffa to let them know you plan to attend and sign our 2026 Volunteer Waiver online before arriving.
