Our Purpose

Our purpose is to organize and run an annual, local "earth day festival" that brings our city and surrounding communities together with the aim of bettering our environment!   Our goal is to educate our community (Framingham and the surrouding towns) on the urgency of taking care of our environment,  to inform them of actions they can take personally and community wide, and to inspire them to do so!   We do this with a fun and interactive event that brings in about 80-100 "exhibitors"  including:  Municipal departments, NGO's, community and environmental groups, Artisans (with a focus on re and upcycling), energy efficiency and other appropriate local business, local farms, great music, eco-friendly kids activities and local vegetarian food vendors.
