Want to help make Old Salt Festival fun and interactive?
In previous years, Old Salt Festival has featured a dedicated kids area. This year, we're expanding to an Activities Area that welcomes attendees of all ages to engage in hands-on, mission-aligned experiences.
This transition allows us to create a more inclusive festival experience where families, individuals, and groups can explore interactive activities together—whether that's learning traditional land practices, trying a new craft, engaging with regenerative agriculture demonstrations, or participating in community-building activities.
We're seeking nonprofits and businesses to activate this space with engaging, participatory activities that connect people to the land, regenerative practices, and each other. If your organization has a hands-on way to bring our festival mission to life, we want to hear from you.
