{I have nothing to do with this festival; I've been to past ones,
picked up a flyer, and thought others might be interested. This
festival was originally an annual affair, but now appears every
other year. The Caldwell Woods location is readily accessible by
public transportation (the Pace 270 bus runs from the Jefferson
Park CTA El station directly to Devon and Milwaukee all day
Sunday).}
