The Wasatch Wildflower Festival was co-founded decades ago by CCF Festival partner, Alta Community Enrichment. The Festival is a special opportunity to educate visitors on how to ensure the protection of this important and unique natural resource. The Wasatch Wildflower Festival’s guided walks and activities are designed to be fun, family-friendly, non-commercial, free of charge, and open to all interests and ability levels. Volunteers share their knowledge and enthusiasm for an amazing variety of species on a variety of beautiful walks. The tours also reinforce careful stewardship and awareness of the ecology of the watershed environment. Come enjoy multiple days of wildflower walks, kids’ crafts, music, food and a healthy dose of the beautiful Cottonwood Canyons.
The 2023 Festival is cohosted with the Brighton Institute at Brighton and Solitude. Snowbird Sustainability, and Alta Community Enrichment and Alta Environmental Center, are cohosting at Snowbird and Alta, respectively.
