Event Report

Poolesville Green’s DEEM Electric Vehicle display at the Montgomery County GreenFest 2026 showcased 16 electric vehicles spanning 9 makes and 15 models, with participation from 17 private EV owners and advocates, four company fleets, one local government, and two dealerships. Festival goers enjoyed 15 Ride/Drives, experiencing cutting-edge electric vehicle technology firsthand. A commercial lawncare company also demonstrated innovative electric robomowing equipment. Poolesville Green also conducted a free drawing to give three lucky attendees native trees to take home. Beyond the EV show, the event featured 100 exhibitors highlighting sustainability and go-green initiatives from county government, as well as profit and non-profit organizations throughout the county. With approximately 1,300 attendees, GreenFest underscored the community’s strong commitment to clean energy and sustainable practices.
