- We invite lots of wonderful, sustainability-minded exhibitors, including local non-profits and businesses with a green story to tell.
- We welcome local farmers, who help us find clean, organic food. We invite local artists and crafters with a theme of reusing old or found objects or nature themes. Volunteers, sponsors and exhibitors please sign up on our website, www.auroragreenfest.com.
- We will talk about coming together to build a sustainable, resilient community.
- We have kids’ activities for fun and education. Kids are the future. We do this for ourselves and for them. Connecting with nature is one way to teach children and grown-ups to protect the earth. Nature exhibits, featuring bats, eagles, bees, skunks and other creatures are always a big favorite.
- Live music and food trucks make it a true celebration.

Dunham’s dream of “making the world a more comfortable, safer place for mankind to live and prosper.”
