Arbor Day Activities
Help green-up Grand Junction by taking home a free tree seedling or participating in a silent auction to bring home a larger containerized tree for your yard. Arbor Day will also include an opportunity to sign up for the launch of the City's private ash treatment cost-share program provided by T4 Tree Services, a silent auction for urban wood pieces milled from recently lost park trees, notable tree tour, and more.

Become a Vendor

Are you a local artist, crafter, business, or non-profit that would love the opportunity to get in front of 4,000-5,000 people? Southwest Arbor Fest is the place to make that happen. The booth fee is only $50 and non-profit organizations are free! Although we have activities throughout the day, booths will be open 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. All booths will have a 10'x10' space.
