Greenfest Sustainable Living Festival

Spend the day immersed in sustainability and green living at Greenfest Sustainable Living Festival! Greenfest is a free, family-friendly event celebrating sustainability, environmental stewardship, and community engagement. The festival will feature hands-on workshops, guided hikes, live music, children's activities, sustainable vendors, and local food and beverage offerings. We expect a strong turnout from families and community members across Central Kentucky. 

Greenfest offers something for everyone:

• Engaging workshops and guided hikes throughout the event.

• Fishing from 2–5PM (Fishing licenses are required for participants 16 years and older. Learn more at fw.ky.gov/Licenses/Pages/default.aspx).

• Hands-on children’s activities led by BGGS educators.

• A vendor area featuring eco-friendly merchandise and informational booths from sustainable organizations/businesses.

• Live music from local Kentucky artist Jeri Katherine Howell.

• Local food and drink vendors.

• A sustainable raffle packed with meaningful prizes.

• And more!

Remember to dress for the outdoors! We encourage comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing and closed-toe shoes suitable for walking on outdoor terrain. Since you’ll be spending time surrounded by nature, long pants and socks are recommended. Don’t forget your reusable water bottle!
