Harvest Festival at Sonoma Garden Park

Join us for Sonoma Ecology Center’s annual Harvest Festival—a joyful, family-friendly gathering that brings our community together in one of Sonoma’s most beloved green spaces. The Harvest Festival is held at Sonoma Garden Park, a community garden and public oasis just a few minutes from downtown Sonoma, stewarded by Sonoma Ecology Center. The festival promises a full day of live music from local artists Jack Hines, Cliff Zyskowski and Eric Joost, and Big Luv Band, farm games and nature crafts, a critter zone featuring reptiles and Studdert Family Farm’s Petting Zoo, delicious food and beverages from local vendors like El Coyote, Sonoma Churros, and Sonoma Syrup Co., a spirited salsa-making competition, and plenty of hands-on nature experiences for all ages.

More than just a seasonal celebration, the Harvest Festival is a vibrant expression of the values we share—community, sustainability, and a deep love for the land. Come connect with neighbors, experience the magic of autumn at the park, and support the ongoing care of this treasured place. Let’s come together to celebrate the season and grow something beautiful together!

The Harvest Festival is free to attend and open to all. The Harvest Festival is a true community event—a day for us to come together and celebrate sustainable agriculture, delicious food, and the people, nature, and wildlife that make Sonoma Valley special. The Harvest Festival is for everyone, and we're glad to be able to offer this activity-filled day with free admission thanks to the support of our wonderful sponsors: Sonoma Clean Power, Sonoma County Farm Bureau, Sonoma County Ag + Open Space, Nugget Markets, Sonoma Garbage Collectors, Exchange Bank, Sonoma Water, Zero Waste Sonoma, Napa Sonoma Oral Surgery & Dental Implants, and The Presentation School.
