We are once again partnering with Schupan to collect and recycle old holiday lights this season! Broken or unwanted string and rope lights can be dropped off to the EEC any time between November 15th and January 31st to be collected for recycling. Dropping off after our business hours? Simply place items in the collection box on our CabinÕs front porch and we will take care of the rest. Thank you for recycling and reducing your waste this holiday season!

The Elkhart Environmental Center is located at 1717 E. Lusher Avenue in Elkhart. Business hours are Monday Ð Friday 8 AM Ð 5 PM.

Celebrate the holiday season with Elkhart Public Library and the EEC on Saturday, December 9th! Make upcycled and wildlife-friendly ornaments, create holiday cards (or letters to Santa) using recycled materials, and listen to holiday stories from a guest librarian. If you feel like getting outdoors, explore our trails with a winter nature scavenger hunt! Light refreshments will be provided.

This family-friendly program is FREE, but advance registration is required and limited. Save your spot now at https://elkhart-environmental-center.ticketleap.com/holiday-hoorah-2023/

Registration deadline: December 6th
