GreenFest brings families together for a fun, interactive day with local vedors, hands on workshops, and activities that celebrate sustainable living.
GreenFest is coming back to the Boro! We invite the community to partner with us to collectively cultivate a greener community.
Join us on Saturday, March 28, from 1:00–5:00 PM, in downtown Statesboro for this annual, fun-filled community celebration of sustainable living.
GreenFest brings together families, local businesses, and community organizations for an afternoon of hands-on activities, education, and entertainment centered around greener lifestyles. This year, we’re excited to feature a Bike Celebration as a special highlight of the event. This engaging and educational component promotes alternative transportation and healthy living through bike safety education, a bike decorating station, and a family-friendly bike parade showcasing creativity and community pride along East Main Street and the McTell Trail.
Throughout the event, attendees can shop local vendors, take part in sustainable crafts, and connect with organizations offering practical solutions for greener living. From eco-friendly products to everyday sustainability tips, GreenFest offers something for all ages to enjoy and learn together.
The goal of GreenFest is to promote sustainable living, raise awareness about alternative transportation, and highlight sustainable products and practices that support a healthier community. We are proud to support a diverse mix of local farms and businesses that align with Sustainable Development Goals and help strengthen a more resilient, environmentally conscious Statesboro.
Come celebrate, learn, ride, and grow with us at GreenFest—where sustainability meets community fun! Check out the last vibrant Statesboro Green Fest held in 2023, to see the fun!
