The Mother Earth News Fair moved the Pennsylvania event from 20 minutes off the turnpike in Seven Springs, to Erie, PA. Not only will it be a PITA to get to, but there’s no state park camping anywhere near there—which made attending the event halfway affordable. (Laurel Hill State Park outside of Seven Springs is awesome, btw.) It’s bad enough the event was canceled for the last couple of years due to COVID, but to move it to Erie…I’m super bummed not to be going this year because lack of affordable places to stay. (Camping fees at a state park were my financial limit.)
Erie is an okay place to visit, but it’s a long-ass haul and is in the middle of nowhere.

Don't know the source here, but there is definitely no camping on the park.

They have pavilions and enclosed shelters for rent, but no actual sites for camping.

Yes! This is my current gripe. I can’t stand Erie.
