Waynedale Green FEST Planning Sessions Announced

Today, The Waynedale Green Alliance, in partnership with the Southwest Conservation Club and Community Harvest are announcing a series of planning sessions for the first annual Green FEST that will take place at the Southwest Conservation Club, located at 5703 Bluffton Road, Fort Wayne, Indiana, 46809.

The Green FEST will be held in celebration of Earth Day on April 25 beginning at noon. There will be guest speakers from the area discussing alternative transportation, recycling, sustainable water, local food movements, historical preservation, and natural habitat recreation.

Food, music, and games will be presented throughout the day and the opportunity to donate a canned good will be offered by Community Harvest.

Green businesses and services will be on-site to inform the public about new and innovative strides in the environmental and energy arena.

Free prizes from area vendors, and services will be announced throughout the day. Companies will be highlighting their green products and services and valuable coupons and products will be on hand to sample -or to WIN!

In the coming weeks, announcements will be made on a periodic basis concerning the details of these prizes and the companies that will be on hand to provide them.

Mopeds, bicycles, walking shoes, walking gear of all kinds, gardening tools, bird feeders, bird seed, garden plans and seeds, water purifiers, eco-friendly clothes, eco-friendly pet food, and green baby clothes and food are all possible prizes at this time.

Most exciting of all, though, will be the fun and excitement brought to the Waynedale community from a host of vendors, performers, and those who have made Waynedale their place to live, work, and play for decades.

We encourage community members to bring their passion, energy, and sense of community to our planning sessions and become a part of this exhilarating day.
