Earth Day Festival 2023

Earth Day is an international celebration. Our multicultural and multi-generational event brings people and organizations from all across our community to celebrate the earth with our love and knowledge of sustainable farming and gardening, the environment, and local food sovereignty.

Earth Day 2023, hosted at the Learning Garden on the Fort Bragg High School campus, offers fun kids activities, informational workshops, a Spring plant sale, educational panels, artisan crafts, delicious food, live music, local vendors, community nonprofits, and our famous bicycle-powered smoothies – all with a focus on sustainability and cultivating community.
