Organicfest

28 Aug 2016

Join us to celebrate Asheville’s 15th Organicfest on Sunday, August 28th in Pack Pack Square Park. Enjoy a festive day of live music by local talents musicians, organic eats, Organicfest Marketplace with organic and green products and natural, handmade arts and crafts. Participants can also take home plenty of information about living a more organic, sustainable lifestyle that is good for people and the planet!

This free family event includes plenty of fun and eco-friendly activities for children including the “Bee-a-Bug" Garden Parade where kids (and their parents) are invited to come dressed as their favorite good bug (honeybee, ladybug, butterfly or garden fairy!) and parade throughout the park in a joyous celebration of the bounty of the garden and the importance of pollinators.

Organicfest is presented by a local, all-volunteer non-profit group in partnership with Asheville Greenworks to present a low impact, green event. The greening of Organicfest will include recycling and composting. Sponsors include: Organic Matters Media, Mountain Rose Herbs, Natural Lifestyle, SilitCookware.com, 880 AM The Revolution, The Laurel of Asheville, Great Life Global, Dig Local, and other local and national businesses and services.

Join the celebration of everything organic, green, good, health and fun at the Organicfest 2016. For more information visit: www.organicfest.org
