Hudson Valley Reggae Fest (ECO &… World Music) is a day-long family oriented “GO-GREEN” music festival featuring an eclectic assortment of musical talent from a variety of different cultures. Our mission is to promote environmental responsibility through music, hands-on environmental educational programs and grassroots community actions.

Greenergy Productions, through community efforts has chosen this method to promote, educate and empower people by creating a network of green ambassadors and advocates through our outreach to universities and colleges, junior and high schools, early childhood education, churches and community organizations, in hope that they will in turn bring information back to their communities.
