Summerfest 2026 Recap: Community, Art, and sunshine at Sweet Tree Farms

Summerfest 2026 was one for the books! On Saturday, August 1, from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM, we opened up the lot to celebrate our incredible Eugene community, bringing together local makers, live beats, delicious bites, and the Pacific Northwest cannabis cultivators and extractors who keep our shelves stocked with the finest goods.

If you came out to kick it with us during those seven hours of pure summer energy, thank you. If you missed out, here is the full recap of everything that went down.

Fresh Food, Live Tunes & Custom Tie-Dye

From the moment things kicked off at 11:00 AM until the final track at 6:00 PM, the soundtrack was held down by DJ Foodstamps, keeping the vibes high all day long.

Our first 200 visitors walked away with exclusive Sweet Tree Summerfest tees and headed straight over to Not Your Momma’s Tie Dye, who ran an open-air dye station so everyone could craft their own one-of-a-kind colorway on the spot.

Right beside the station, our manager Johnny manned the grill, serving up free hot dogs to keep everyone fueled up. To beat the heat, Kiki’s Piña Coladas kept the crowd refreshed with fresh, non-alcoholic tropical drinks (plus an awesome selection of potted plants to take home), while Magic Number dished out dessert outside with their ice cream float pop-up.

Local Artists & Makers Market

We love spotlighting the homegrown creative talent here in Eugene and across the PNW. Our vendor row featured an eclectic mix of artists, craftspeople, and makers sharing their craft with the community:

  • Goatsbeard Homestead: Handcrafted, small-batch bee products and homestead goods.

  • Henna by Bre: Detailed live henna body art alongside an eye-catching collection of handmade rugs.

  • Creatively Madd: Vibrant custom tie-dye apparel and intricate handmade glass pendants.

  • Shaz: Original fine artwork alongside custom fidget spinners.

  • Ben Voter: Stunning, one-of-a-kind handmade art installations.

  • Chika: Expressive dip-painted canvases, prints, and curated wearable art.
