Get ready to hug a tree and groove to the beat because the Whole Earth Festival is back to transform the UC Davis Quad into a vibrant utopia of sustainability and art. What started as a modest art class project in 1969 has blossomed into a legendary three-day extravaganza, attracting tens of thousands of eco-conscious revelers every Mother’s Day weekend. Expect a zero-waste wonderland overflowing with interactive educational workshops, mesmerizing live music across multiple stages, and an eclectic artisan market that will make your boho dreams come true. It is a completely free, student-run celebration where activism meets holistic wellness, inviting you to connect with nature, indulge in wholesome vegetarian treats, and immerse yourself in a wonderfully creative community experience.
