Welcome!

The 16th annual Greening Up the Mountains Festival will be held Saturday, April 27, 2013, on Main and Mill Streets in historic downtown Sylva. A project of the Town of Sylva, this is the year’s largest annual event, and brings residents, visitors, and families to our beautiful downtown. Strengthened by its early roots as an Earth Day celebration, the festival includes a focus on environmental protection, sustainability, and promotion of local businesses and civic groups. The celebration, which draws approximately 10-12,000 visitors each year, will include a 5K run, two music stages, a children’s stage, a talent show, craft demonstrations, kids’ activities, food, and more!
