Relax by the river and enjoy the leafy scenery this Sunday at the Little Green Festival at Burcham Park, 2nd and Indiana streets. This inaugural festival is a celebration of both nature’s splendor and it’s power—you can lose yourself gazing at the forest of cottonwoods and learn about sustainable products and alternative energy methods like wind and solar power, all while local musicians provide live tunes to lounge to. “I want people to come down and see the beauty of the nature that’s there,” says Alison Roepe, event founder. “And then I want them to have some conversations about how to make your life green, even if in a dorm room or a sorority. We can all do something.” The festival begins at 2 p.m. and will also offer food from Ingredient, wholesome drinks from Global Café, natural crafts and artwork, and several demonstrations from people “greening” their own lives, including the owners of two cars that made it to California on vegetable oil—at a cost of zero dollars.
