2019 California Avocado Festival

From 2019 California Avocado Festival Website:

The California Avocado Festival is Carpinteria's largest family friendly community celebration and one of the largest free festivals in the country. It's expected to attract more than 100,00 people this year. This year the event will take place October 5th-7th on Linden Ave. from Carpinteria Ave. to 6th Street. With strong emphasis on maintaining a "Carp first" event, our success stems from the idea of celebrating everything that makes Carpinteria special: Delicious avocado inspired food, a wide variety of music, being a platform for local nonprofits and service organization to raise funds for their worthy causes, and most importantly, our dedication to raising scholarship funds for local youth in the areas of music, culinary arts, fine arts, and agriculture.

In addition, not only is it a large festival, but it is also a "green" festival. We have really worked diligently to reduce the carbon footprint in leading a "Zero Waste" festival. We divert virtually 100% of the waste to either recycling or composting instead of the landfill.
