Lots more to do and see . . . no wonder you need to plan to be at GreenFest all day!
A big, big thank you to all the speakers, forest school leaders, volunteers, and the many, many people who are giving up their time and energy to make GreenFest THE place to be. We still need more volunteers so if you could give an hour or two of your day to help, please get in touch.

Food and Drink
We have some exciting food and drink providers joining us, catering for all tastes. BYO plates, cutlery etc. and earn yourself some sustainability brownie points (and possibly discounts!). More information Unwanted 'Stuff'
GreenFest is an opportunity to have a clear out of all those things you no longer need but could benefit someone else. We will have tie bins, bra bins, lego bins, jewellery bins . . . and much more. Have a look on our Waste Not Want Not page for more details. Panel Discussions
This year GreenFest is hosting not one but two panel discussions. We've gathered experts from a broad range of disciplines to help us 'join the dots' and better understand what positive action looks like. In addition to the panel discussions we have a great talks line up so do take a look at this too. More information |
FREE Bike Checks
Due to its popularity at last GreenFest we are offering TWO bike check service companies - Meadvale Bay and Southern Cycle Services who will be doing free bike checks all day by the Village Hall. More information Forest School
Located in the Shop Orchard, qualified forest school leaders, bushcrafters and nature experts will lead a great programme of educational sessions for children and adults alike. More information 
Bringing your own crockery and cutlery saves disposables so is kinder to our planet. And some food and drink providers offer a discount for bring-your-own. Water refill stations available. Get creative with Ecobricks
A first, we think, for the UK. Lucie will be bringing ecobrick modules which can be used like Lego to make different 3D-shapes. Whatever your age, come and play! More information |
Workshops
GreenFest is all about helping to show what is possible. Why not learn something new, such as how to repair clothes or head over to our Forest School or the Nature zone where we'll be running lots of educational, nature-based sessions for all ages. More information Immersive Experience Show
What do you get when you put together the Trust for Sustainable Living (Living Rainforest) and a professional lighting company who do Strictly Come Dancing? Come to GreenFest and find out what's behind the curtains... More information Children!
GreenFest is as much for the kids as for the adults. We are busy lining up a programme, including free crafting, plus, hands-on activities to try out at the Nature Zone & Climate Action Zone exhibitor stands plus there's expert-led Forest School sessions, don't forget the free Graffiti Jam street art sessions (over 12yrs) and the TSL sound & Light Spectacular 'Climate Changing' experience to wonder at. There's also free kids bike checks and areal acrobatics to try! - we promise it will be fun as well as educational for toddlers, teenagers and adults alike. |
