It is held at the Randwick Community Centre located at 27 Munda Street, Randwick.
See Getting there and parking for directions.
Eco-Living Fair will be celebrating its tenth year, and will continue to provide a range of new and popular activities for local residents and their families.
There will be:
Other popular events on the day include Council's Garden Awards, cycling activities and free bicycle maintenance workshops, tours of the Randwick Environment Park and "ask the experts" sessions on keeping bees and chickens and sustainable food production.
More information of the Fair will be available on our What's on closer to the day.
Our aim is that every person leaves having learnt something about the environment or a tip about how to tread more lightly on the earth.
Our event is powered by renewable forms of energy including wind, solar and bio diesel and we are giving away over 3000 trees to our visitors to help offset the carbon used in the event's infrastructure delivery and operation.
Food and food scraps will be collected and will provide breakfast, lunch and dinner for our worms in our huge worm farm.
We are also running a book exchange - bring along an old book and swap it for one you haven't read yet.
We encourage sustainable transport and offer a free shuttle bus service and bike valet - so hop on a bus or hop on a bike and get dropped off right at the door.
It was a great day to celebrate our community and come together to learn more about the environment and actions we can take to tread more lightly on the earth.
We hope everyone who came picked up some good advice, learnt something new or sampled from one of our many stalls or food trucks.
Take a look at the highlights from last year's Eco-Living Fair.
