30th Annual Pesto Festo

Sweetwater Organic Community Farm /Facebook
Sweetwater Organic Farm celebrates a different type of herb—basil, that is—at its annual springtime fundraiser this month, which just so happens to fall on 4/20 this year. In addition to flowing drinks and good eats like pesto pasta, zoodles and pesto pizza, Pesto Festo 2024 also features live music, kids activities, a dessert bar, silent auction, raffles, drum circle and other basil-themed festivities. Locally-brewed kombucha, beer and wine will be on tap, too. Funds raised help continue the community-ran organic farm’s mission of “exploring ecological interconnections, practicing appropriate land stewardship and mastering sustainable agriculture techniques.”
