Naturepalooza, Goats at a Book Fest, and a New NoLibs Playground: Your Philly Weekend
It's Earth Day weekend. Saturday is outdoor and free: Naturepalooza returns for its 61st year in the forest, a brand-new playground opens at Liberty Lands, and there's a literacy fest with actual goats. Sunday brings art vendors to Fairmount Ave and a five-block food festival to East Passyunk. Pick your lane.

Earth Day Party and Toy Swap
