✨ Vendor Spotlight ✨

Our vendors brought so much more than products and services, they brought flavor, creativity, and heart to the Green Festival. From delicious plant-based bites and handmade goods to wellness offerings and cultural treasures, each booth reflected the passion and talent within our community.

Supporting local vendors means supporting dreams, families, and the Bridgeport economy. Thank you to everyone who stopped by, shopped small, and celebrated what our city has to offer.

💚 Thank You, Bridgeport! 💚

The rain may have dampened the day, but it couldn’t wash away the energy, love, and community spirit that made the inaugural Bridgeport Green Festival such a beautiful success.

We are grateful to our sponsors City of Bridgeport, United Illuminating, Food Bazaar, Colorful Bridgeport / Bridgeport DSSD, and M&T Bank for believing in this vision. Special thanks to BEDCO – Bridgeport Economic Development Corp for their support, and to our generous donors: Hoffman Energy and Lisa

Shoutout to and the interns for keeping the sound strong, and to the incredible musicians who lit up the stage: The Bernadettes, Orquesta Afinke, and .dfg DJ Destiny for keeping the energy alive. Thank you to Tarena for leading us in line dancing with so much joy.

We also want to recognize the creative talents who made the festival shine: for the logo that represented us so well, Digital for capturing the vibe, and Sam at Staples Fairfield for being so helpful and patient.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to Dan Tenney, Barbara Distasio, Rob Gerowe, Verna Liburd, Jenna Venditto, .maignan, volunteers ( .yagz ) attendees, businesses, and organizations who brought their time, products, services, and resources to Post Office Square.

✨ This festival was built on the belief that wellness, sustainability, and community are stronger when we come together. On Saturday, despite the rain, Bridgeport showed up and that spirit is what we’ll carry forward. ✨

Until next year… thank you for making history with us. 💚
