Organizers of an upcoming spring event hope that eating green will grow on you.

Plants + Pints will return to Strawberry Square in Harrisburg on April 6, promoting local vegan, vegetarian and eco-conscious vendors and brewers.

Harristown Enterprises and Sara Bozich Events will host the plant-based festivities from 1 to 5 p.m. Attendees will be able to sample and purchase food and drinks from a variety of vendors, and shop handmade goods from local artisans.

“We’re excited to return Plants + Pints to Strawberry Square,” said Brad Jones, president and CEO of Harristown Enterprises. “We’ve seen how interest in a healthy or plant-based lifestyle has grown, and the Harrisburg area has so much to offer. This festival allows vegans, vegetarians, and the veg-curious, to shop, sip, and sample from local vendors in a fun, inviting space – while giving back to the community.”

Tickets are required for entry and proceeds will support Harrisburg-based Downtown Daily Bread, which provides food, shelter and resources to the unhoused. Last year’s event raised $5,000 for the nonprofit.

Tickets for the event are $20 and kids under 12 years old can attend for free.
