Eco-outing: Moss Rock Festival this weekend in Hoover

By Wade Kwon

The environment is a big part of the fourth annual Moss Rock Festival, both in setting and in theme. Eco-inspired art, ideas for sustainable living and guided hikes are part of the two-day celebration at Moss Rock Preserve in Hoover.

The free event includes music performances, kids’ activities, even a high-gravity beer tasting (for $10 extra).

The festival runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Visitors must park at nearby Regions Park (formerly the Hoover Metropolitan Stadium); shuttles will run throughout the day to the event site.
