Our annual EarthFair in Balboa Park is the largest free annual environmental fair in the world. EarthFair 2011 will be our 22nd annual event held on Sunday, April 17, 2011 from 10 a.m. - 5 p.m.. Each year, the EarthFair draws around 60,000 visitors.

Produced by 400 volunteers, EarthFair features more than 350 exhibitors, special theme areas, a Food Pavilion, a special Kids’ Activity Area, three entertainment venues, the Children’s Earth Parade, the eARTh Gallery art show, and the Cleaner Car Concourse.

It's impossible to list everything you'll find at EarthFair but here are a few: traditional conservation organizations, wildlife preservation groups, products made from natural and organically grown crops, organic gardening information, alternative energy vehicles, ecotourism opportunities, many alternative and traditional health care products and services, pet adoption services, clean air and clean water products, rainforest preservation groups ... the list goes on and on.
