Idaho Earthfest 2007

Smart Solutions, Smart Idaho

Since 1990, Earth Fest Idaho has evolved to provide the public with a free, family-oriented event and is committed to teaching common sense conservation and the preservation of our resources, lands and wildlife.

Thank you to everyone who participated in Idaho Earth Fest 2007! Over 2,000 people joined dozens of exhibitors at Julia Davis Park on Saturday April 21, 2007 to celebrate Earth Day and get lots of great information on Smart Solutions for home and work that reduce our environmental impact. If you don't believe us - take a second to check out photos from the day.

Over 100 volunteers marked storm drains, cleaned parks, planted willow trees and helped out at Zoo Boise in service projects around the community Saturday morning. It was a pleasure to work with the dedicated professionals and volunteers with the City of Boise Park and Rec Department, Trout Unlimited Ted Trueblood Chapter and Zoo Boise.

Our thanks to the musicians and dancers who donated their artistic talent and time to entertain the crowd:

Nejwah's World Dance Troupe
Decorative Poi by Rose
Story Reading by Boise High School TREE club
Victuals bluegrass band (sponsored by Western Watersheds Project)
Carter Freeman
Malakai, and...
The Heard

8th Street Wine Company provided great food and drink, and donated a portion of the proceeds to Idaho Earth Fest. Thank you Erik and crew!

Dozens of volunteers provided invaluable help with set up, parking control, monitoring the alcohol area, assisting kids with art projects, staffing the Earth Fest booth and clean up. The event could not succeed without volunteers—thank you!
