Firstly, I would just like to let you know that Episode 100 is rapidly approaching. Â It is going to be a massive show, and it will focus on listener questions. Â So don’t be shy. Â Send in a sustainable living question or a message for Kim and I using the widget below, and we will play it and/or answer the question on the 100th show. Â I am really looking forward to this milestone event in two weeks time.
This episode is a roundup of sustainable living events that I will be speaking or manning a stall at or visiting in the next two months. Â I also talk a little about the yearly Sustainable Living Festival here in Melbourne.
I talked about the following events;
- Melton City Energy and Sustainability Expo, Saturday 31st January 2015. Â More information Environment and Sustainability Expo flyer A4.
- Macedon Ranges Sustainable Living Festival, Saturday 28th February 2015.  More information Macedon Ranges Sustainable Living Festival.
- The main Sustainable Living Festival for the year will be held from 7th February to 1st March 2015. Â You can find more infomation at their site www.slf.org.au
I also chat about some of the happenings around here, and new products in our shop www.littlegreenworkshops.com.au. Â We have been so busy making and putting up new products lines, including preserving kits and equipment, handmade soap, and soy melts. Â Add that to all the other kits, supplies, and equipment that we have available for Cheese, Soap, and Soy Candle making, we haven’t had time to scratch ourselves! Â Starting a small business is not for the faint hearted.
So, we hope you can get to some of these sustainable living events and drop in and say gidday. Â Most are free and very educational. Â I would love to meet you.
February is the busiest month in the sustainability calendar here in Victoria. Â I love it, because it recharges my internal green batteries, and puts me on the path again for another year of our journey. Â Without these types of events, I think I would feel a little lost, and a little alone.
Another sort of related fair you mightn’t be aware of is the Lost Trades Fair. https://www.facebook.com/losttrades I’ve got our tickets to this one and can’t wait to go. Many of the old trades work hand in hand with sustainability – mend the broken chair instead of buying more if you know what I mean. 🙂
Hoping to get to the sustainable living festival again this year. I had a great time last year. Hopping to make the Macedon ranges one too. Might see you there. 🙂
Going to have to go shopping too. Candle making kits are in our future. 🙂
That lost trades fair looks amazing. I will have to check if we are free that weekend, because it would be great to take the family to.
It would be great to catch up at the SLF. I don’t think that the Big Event at Fed Square is on this year, something to do with Cricket. So the Macedon event will be pretty big I think.
