The purpose of the Kaya Fest is to educate people to the many uses of the cannabis plant as well as to inspire and encourage positive public awareness especially since more and more states are approving the use of medical marijuana, such as Florida where it just became legal this past year. In addition to the booths of food, crafts and other refreshments at the Festival, there will also be those passing along information highlighting the benefits derived from all aspects of the cannabis plant. How it has medical and ecological advantages that make it a valuable addition to all our lifestyles. Kaya Fest is a cutting edge and positive event which promotes education, raising consciousness and spreading unity.
The overall message of the Festival is "Education Before Recreation." Kaya Fest is presented by Fruit of Life Productions Co-Executive Producer David F. Alfonso For more information go to: www.kayafestivals.com
