Rain No Damper On Watershed Festival

I have to say there was still what looked to be a fine crowd today at the Redding Whole Earth and Watershed Festival! held in the City Hall Sculptural Park!  I have attended this before, but this year it was a really BIG event!  How wonderful to see so many people out enjoying a great day with the Family and Exploring Northstate Offerings!

There was great music, delicious food, more than enjoyable music and lots of Wonderful Art!
Partnerships this year with Raba, Turtle Bay and Shasta Living Streets was a huge success as far as I could tell!  I enjoyed booths from many Agency's like the Shasta Chapter of the Native Plants Society, Very Informative, I learned a lot about plants that are not even indigenous to this area that are not very friendly!  Growing Local People were having fun and had some great plants too!  There was Churn Creek, Hat Creek And so many more I can't even list them all!  A complete list of the Vendors is Here!

I saw my friend Nadia from the Bohemian Art Loft with some of her Beautiful Unique Handmade Jewelry!  The day would have been incomplete if I had not gotten to the Wow Waffle Tent,  Unbelievable!  If I could make waffles like that.....mmmmmmm....  :)


It was very interesting to see the "Shasta Living Streets Program" concept of opening the streets to foot traffic and promoting an OPEN AIR DAY! It was a delight and I had a lot of fun as I am sure there are many happy children that enjoyed a day out and about with the Family!!

I did venture on across the way to see my friend Mark at the Shamrock....http://brokeneckstudio.blogspot.com
