MENTONE, Ala.-More that 150 visitors turned out Saturday for the first Mentone Earth Day Festival at Brow Park.
They joined local environmental groups and educators who came together to share ideas on environmental management and promote awareness of issues facing Alabama, the nation and the world.
From information on energy-saving dome homes to food, art, music and games for the kids, Mentone’s first Earth Day Festival offered a little something for everyone.
Wildflower Cafe owner Elsie Moon celebrated the day and the community.
“We love Mentone, ” Moon said. “We feel like we were all called to the mountain. Mentone is a place to witness God in action and get in touch with nature.”
