Sustainable Living
Fair
Orcas Island
May 1 & 2, 2010
The Event:
The Stewardship Network of the San Juans
and the organizers of last year’s Orcas
Island Sustainable Living Fair are
working together to present the
Sustainable Living Fair 2010 on Orcas
Island. The mission of the Sustainable
Living Fair is to share information and
resources towards creating a more
environmentally and economically
sustainable San Juan Islands.
We’re planning a celebration! On
Saturday, May 1 from 10:00 until 3:00,
we’ll have music, speakers and the
presentation of this year’s “finnies”
(the San Juan Islands Good Steward
Awards), all on the Eastsound Village
Green stage. Surrounding the stage will
be displays and demonstrations by
organizations and businesses committed
to creating a more environmentally and
economically sustainable San Juan
Islands.
All of this is set to coincide with the
first Orcas Farmer’s Market of the year,
with some early season vegetables,
garden starts and a multitude of
wonderful local crafts. Lunch will be
available from a variety of local
vendors, too, so plan to eat at the
Green!
On Sunday, May 2, there will be a
variety of field trips to see
sustainable techniques in action, and
just to get out and enjoy beautiful
Orcas Island.
