Tickets can be purchased here and they range from $10 to 80.  The ticket’s price changes based on a day pass\, weekend pass or kids ticket pricing. Facilities include potable water spigots throughout the campground\, hot showers\, internet service\, trash\, compost and recycling. \nAbout the place\, the campground is 80 acres of meadows and woodlands nestled into the foothills of the Appalachian mountains. Observing the nearest breeding bird survey route recorded by the USGS in 2022\, a total of 104 species have been documented along this pathway. Including American Woodcock\, Eastern Screech-Owl\, Belted Kingfisher\, Purple Martin\, Eastern Meadowlark\, Worm-eating Warbler\, Prothonotary Warbler\, Northern Parula\, Indigo Bunting and so many more! \nMadison Donohue\, Tourism Manager for Appalachian Understories\, has been in charge of planning the annual event for the last four years. \n“Each year\, I am amazed by the sense of community that is so quickly established at the event\,” she says. “It’s a magical thing to see a group of strangers connecting over their love for nature\, resulting in friendships and a deepened appreciation for the natural world.” \nLaRanda\, Tourism Specialist for Appalachian Understories\, was previously involved with the event as a volunteer and then an art vendor\, but is now helping to plan it. \n“It’s been exciting to be a part of this event in several different capacities and to watch it grow and evolve with its new location at Wisteria\,” LaRanda says. \nAppalachian Understories\, a social enterprise of Rural Action\, provides natural and cultural historic tourism in Appalachian Ohio\, hiring local guides\, historians\, and naturalists to create outdoor experiences for people. The tours allow participants to enjoy the natural beauty of SE Ohio while learning about the rich cultural history of the region. \n“It takes a lot of hard work to create opportunities for such transformative moments\,” says Joe Brehm\, Chief Program Officer for Rural Action. “Thankfully\, my colleague Madison took on all of this hard work so that I and other festival goers could bask in the beauty of birds together.” \nRural Action is a regional community development organization with a 32-county footprint working with members and community leaders on a range of quality of life\, environmental\, and economic projects across rural Appalachian Ohio. Its mission is to build a more just economy by developing the region’s assets in environmentally\, socially\, and economically sustainable ways. Learn more about Rural Action at www.ruralaction.org.
