Celebrate Earth Month
Join us this April as we honor our planet with a series of inspiring Earth Month activations designed to spark joy, support sustainability, and build community. From meaningful beach cleanups to fun and interactive Earth Day events, there’s something for everyone to enjoy—and give back.
At The Palms, caring for the Earth isn’t just a once-a-year affair. Our commitment to sustainability shines year-round through ongoing initiatives like our Fill-A-Bucket beach clean-up program, Ocean Friendly Fridays, and Meatless Mondays—each encouraging mindful choices that make a difference.
