The 2nd Annual Great Green America Fest was held May 3 & 4, 2008 on the grounds of the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire. This year, the Green and Growing School Day program was added to the festival on Friday, May 2, to spread the green message to the students who will someday become the caretakers of our planet. Designed to meet Pennsylvania Department of Academic Standards, the Green and Growing School Day drew an attendance of 3,400 local students. The field trip provided students with “edutainment” about their interaction with the environment through presentations and activities led by the Franklin Institute, the Philadelphia Zoo, as well as Monarch Journey and many other green partners.
