Event Report

On April 26, 2026, the Minnesota Clean Cities Coalition (MC3) participated in the 7th Annual Edina Earth Day Festival, hosted by the Morningside Neighborhood Association in Edina. During the event, the MC3 engaged with attendees to share information about electric vehicles, EV charging, and electric landscape equipment, while answering questions and interacting with attendees of all ages through trivia on electric vehicles with interactive education learning tools. Many attendees were somewhat familiar with EV technology, with several promoting ownership of PHEVs or full electric.

The festival featured a wide range of sustainability-focused organizations, a collaborative Eco Passport activity for attendees to collect stickers at each booth, and an electric vehicle showcase displaying models from companies such as Rivian, Chevrolet, and Audi. The event also included live music, local food vendors and small businesses, and prize drawings supported by local partners. State legislator Julie Greene of Edina and Minnesota State Representative Larry Kraft spoke on stage about the importance of sustainability. Two student speakers also delivered speeches on sustainability and were presented with a $2,400 donation from Cool Planet Skiers to the Edina Education Fund to support environmental education initiatives in the community.
