The Rochester Area 2010 Think Green Fair will take place from 10am-9pm on June 26th, 2010 at the Olmsted County Fairgrounds, Graham Park. Join us for this full full day celebration of green living and sustainability in southern Minnesota!
What is Thinking Green? Thinking green means learning to live in a way that will reduce your impact on the environment, improve your quality of life, and save you money. Thinking Green is about coming together with neighborhoods, communities, organizations, and businesses to ensure that the choices we make today will not compromise the quality of life for future generations.
The fair will include a green expo, workshops, speakers, musical entertainment, local food, artisans and children’s activities providing you the opportunity to think green in all aspects of your life.
The goal of the fair is to educate attendees in the areas of:
- Efficiency/Renewable energy
- Conservation/Protection of water and/or air
- Earth friendly home and garden products
- Waste reduction
- Durable/Reusable products
- Natural or locally produced foods (free-range, pesticide-free)
- Green certification (USDA Organic, Energy Star, Fair Trade, LEED, other)
- Health and Wellness
- Promotion of environmental values
