August Events in Marin

Becky Wiegand - MALT

It’s heating up this August, with events in Marin to stay cool indoors with virtual events and have fun in the sun with outdoor activities. From last summer hurrah celebrations, farmers’ markets and fairs to directly connect with our agricultural producers, volunteer opportunities in our open spaces, and more. 

Visit a ranch for a summer harvest supper, take a hike or bike ride, or visit some of Marin’s agricultural producers at local markets.

The beautiful vistas of MALT-protected land you see as you explore the region support our thriving agricultural community, sustain biodiverse habitats, and connect us to our local food and fiber producers. We hope you will get outside this August and enjoy all the events Marin has to offer.
