Join Eden Village Camp at the inaugural Festival of Eden, where hundreds of participants of all ages will enjoy hands-on farming and green-living workshops, local organic food, live music, art, nature adventures, and environmental education. The event allows participants to enact, celebrate and deepen their commitments to sustainable living!

Skill-building workshops include seed saving, sauerkraut- and cheese-making, "Super Sprowtz Super-Powered Vegucation", converting generators to veggie oil, composting, fermenting, herbal medicine making, and tie-dye revolution. Outstanding live music all day includes performances from Soul Farm, Ta Shma Orchestra, Chana Rothman, The Shir Yaakov Band, and The Benjy Fox-Rosen Trio.

All-day activities include boating on the lake, story telling and face painting.

The Festival showcases a cutting-edge food sensibility through a curated farmers’ market with booths from local farmers and food vendors, including organic tamales, bagels, local beer and wine, and inspired food from the Eden Village Kosher kitchen.

Proceeds from this day of discovery and fun will support Eden Village Camp's Scholarship Fund, in efforts to meet the thriving camp's increasing scholarship requests.

All ages are welcome and highly encouraged for this rain-or-shine event!
