Join the Team Behind the homecoming of the Castroville Artichoke Festival and our first annual Green & Gold Gala!

Exciting things are on the horizon for Castroville! North County Recreation and Park District will host the first annual Green & Gold Gala on Saturday, September 5, 2026. This will serve as the official kickoff celebration and fundraiser for the Castroville Artichoke Festival.

In addition, North County Recreation and Park Districtis is also bringing back our beloved tradition with the homecoming of the Castroville Artichoke Festival, on May 22, 2027, and other festivities set for the month of May 2027. 

To make these milestone events a success for our entire community, we are inviting local residents, leaders, and volunteers to join our planning committee!

Whether you want to help coordinate the gala dinner and auctions, manage vendor logistics, assist with festival setup, or lead marketing and outreach, we need your vision and energy on the team.
