There is never a shortage of things to do here in Nevada County and the Celtic Festival is a must-attend event from September 26th – 28th.
Did you know that you can even book your wedding at the Celtic Festival?
If you love Celtic music and dressing up in Celtic-themed clothes, this is the event of the year for you.
We wish everyone a very happy and safe Independence Day! Looking for a way to spend the holiday? A parade begins this morning in downtown Grass Valley. Later, the fairgrounds hosts the largest fireworks show in the Sierra foothills! Read more about it HERE.
This past weekend, we went to the Green Life Eco Fest. We had a great time. Many local merchants and businesses were there to offer their information. The A.P.P.L.E. Center for Sustainable Living was there as well as Reinette Senum, a local who is very involved in the community, who shared her new portable shelter for the homeless. The local co-op, Briar Patch, attended and displayed the healthy food they provide in their grocery store. Nevada County Grown, a local non-profit, was there sharing their information on how they connect local farmers and ranchers to the community. There was plenty to eat at the festival, like Horn of the Bull, a local taqueria. A family-owned frozen yogurt business, Yotasia,was selling a few of their frozen yogurt treats. Each of Yotasia’s flavors are hand-crafted and homemade with no added sugars or artificial sweeteners. Each of their locations is on a college campus in the dining halls. We had a great time meeting other “green” businesses and getting new ideas on what we can do to be more eco-friendly.
