Love Grows Festival

This two-day event celebrates & cultivates love for diverse people and love for the planet we all depend on.

It’s about love in the radical sense, the way Martin Luther King, Jr. taught it.

It’s about love as a verb, not just a feeling, the way bell hooks wrote about it.

It’s about love as biophilia, or love of living things, the way E. O. Wilson defined it.

It’s about love as the antidote to hate, the way our nation needs it.


This uplifting weekend features talks, workshops, and fun in two themes:

Love for People & Love for Planet
