On the last weekend of May, Humboldt and Del Norte Counties got their lightsabers, Leia buns, and Baby Yoda ears out for the Forest Moon Festival! In its 2nd year running, this festival was all about celebrating the history between our Redwoods and the Endor scenes from the finale of the OG Star Wars trilogy, Return of the Jedi, and getting to show off some geekiness here and there too!
Redwood Voice’s Monique Camarena was on the ground to see what was going on at this Endor-inspired event, and find out why this movie makes Crescent City feel a little more special!
