As a featured event, we're giving away to attendees, FREE of charge, 500+ trees and mulch as part of the Shade the Streets tree-adoption program, in association with TreeFolks NeighborWoodsprogram and their partnership with the City of Austin and Austin Energy.
The goal of Shade the Streets is to help neighbors work together to create a more beautiful and lively neighborhood with less ambient heat by planting trees in our communities, notably, in our front yards. Sign up to reserve your trees in advance and get them at Austin ECO FEST!
Check our agenda for a sample list of activities for all ages open to everyone in Austin and beyond! More activities will be added to the roster. Let's come together to celebrate our roots in nature and spread our wings towards a greener future. Don't miss out on this exciting event!
