Try something new at Everything Outdoors Fest
Heading into its third year, Everything Outdoor Fest is a two-day festival for outdoor enthusiasts at Historic Hopkins Farm in Simpsonville. The 200-acre site will be packed with activities, workshops, and entertainment, from archery and kayaking to live music and s’mores by the firepit.
The nonprofit event was created by Jacqui McGuinness and her team at JBM & Associates to showcase the beauty and diversity of South Carolina’s natural resources and to promote health and wellness through outdoor recreation and education.
