“What The Festival was filled with music, memories, art and community. It was truly a transformational experience, one that should be enjoyed by every one. It’s a spectacle and the opportunity to be part of that spectacle is second to none. If you had the chance to attend this year, you know. If not, you will have to see for yourself next year.”

Clean The Festival CTF

We are a pack-in & pack-out event. Our overall mission and goal is for folks to leave the land more pristine than when they arrived by being responsible for the waste they bring in and generate while at the event. Of course as you all know, we provide receptacles for waste on site in order to properly dispose of any waste we may sell/provide attendees such as in the marketplace. Anything people bring in should be taken out by them in the end, including waste. If everyone respects the land in this way, we will have a beautiful and clean wilderness place to celebrate!
