Englewood Forest Festival, a annual, free celebration of the arts, nature, and community, takes place Saturday, Aug. 8 in beautiful, forested Englewood Park in Northeast Salem. The free festival provides music and entertainment on two stages and dozens of free family-friendly activities for all ages to learn more about the Willamette Valley environment and what can be done in backyards and neighborhoods to protect trees, creaks, flowers, birds and other wildlife. The historic Englewood Park, designed by the renown female landscape architect team of Lord & Schryver, is a key highlight of the event. The park is celebrating its 100th year anniversary this year. The park is also considered one of the best native urban wildflower gardens in the Mid-Willamette Vallejo. The festival strives to include representation from Salem’s diverse creative community. Important goals are to inspire youth, provide opportunities for environmental education and offer support of the arts.
