Pip goes to the Sustainable Living Festival!
Posted on Thursday, February 25, 2010
It was hot and sticky but the folks still came out to stroll along the Yarra river and get excited about all the amazing eco freindly sustainability focused stuff that is happening in Australia and the world.
There was forums, talks and discussions, there was workshops galore, there was music (with the amplifiers powered by people riding exercise bikes), there was everything fairtrade from coffee to undies and there was even a permaculture garden.
Kylie and I set up a stall and had an amazing (if slightly exhausting) weekend talking our little heads of about seeds and growing veggies. It was so exciting to hear everyones gardening stories and swap tips and ideas for getting our patches thumping in Autumn. So many interesting people, so much to talk about. Thanks has to go out to our support crew (Dad, Julie, Mum, Claire and Andy) who helped us pack seeds, set up the stall, hand out postcards, stay hydrated and fed all weekend.
