What Is the Green Bottle Method?

Southwest Funga Fest uses the Green Bottle Method, a community-supported approach to ticket pricing.

The three levels allow attendees to choose the price that best reflects their personal financial circumstances while helping support Southwest Funga Fest and its mission.

  • Bottle One — Community Supported. Includes one Pass for the selected event. Choose this level if it best reflects your current financial circumstances.
  • Bottle Two — Standard Support. Includes one Pass for the selected event. This level provides standard support for Southwest Funga Fest events.
  • Bottle Three — Pay It Forward. Includes one Pass for the selected event. This level provides additional support for Southwest Funga Fest events, and community accessibility. 

No matter which Bottle you choose, you receive the same experience.

Mandie Quark presents Mushrooms, Moths, and Midnight Ecology. After the sun goes down, the forest doesn’t sleep—it goes wild. Explore glowing mushrooms, pollinating moths, decay, soil-building, nutrient cycling, and the night-shift creatures whose interactions humans are only beginning to understand.

Limited to 50 participants. No one will be turned away for lack of funds—please message us directly if cost is a barrier.

A portion of this weekend’s proceeds will support firefighters and first responders responding to the Frijoles Fire.
