As Orange County’s only “green” retail campus, The CAMP pioneered many environmental firsts such as introducing indigenous landscaping, capturing all storm water on site, a grass roof, a yurt café, use of FSC certified wood in construction, herb boxes on site, a Community Supported Agriculture drop-off location, educational seminars and films, as well as an incredible selection of eco-friendly eats, goods and services.

Naturalist for You will have its professional naturalists on hand connecting the public to nature and Canvas Shop will offer free personal art projects for those who want to get their creative juices flowing. Presenting sponsor South Coast Toyota of Costa Mesa will display the latest Prius models, and livening up the celebration will be bluegrass duo Moonsville Collective.
