SolFest is the world's premier two-day celebration of renewable energy and sustainable living. Since SolFest was born in 1996 over 100,000 people have learned how to change the world while having fun. Each summer SolFest transforms the rural hamlet of Hopland, California, into the global epicenter of green living.

Ok, even though Hopland is technically in Mendocino County, we just had to include SolFest. SolFest definitely has a progressive hiippy feel to it which makes it all the more fun. There are great high level musicians and bands that play on the main stage. There is a huge vending area that has a wide range of things to eat, drink and see. Theres a wine garden and a wonderful little pond with weeping willows to picnic or hang out by.
