EcoLiving Fair

EcoLiving Fair 2011The next EcoLiving Fair & Speaker Series is tentatively scheduled for Saturday, Sept 22, 2012.

The 2011 EcoLiving Fair & Speaker Series had amazing environmentally enhancing exhibits and heard valuable information but the attendance was down from previous years. We felt that the calibre of exhibits and speakers was the best ever, it is too bad that more people did not take advantage of this free event. We want to thank all of the speakers who shared their expertise with the audiences and the exhibitors who are doing an excellent job of offering products and services to reduce our impact on the environment and save money on our utility bills. Check out our event photos here. If you have suggestions to improve this event or ideas for other EcoLiving Events, we would like to hear from you. Please write to info@ecolivingevents.ca.

EcoLiving Fair 2011The EcoLiving Fair & Speaker Series is a showcase where individuals and groups come together to share information about initiatives and environmental experiences with Calgarians. The Fair’s Exhibits and Speaker Series aim to increase public awareness on sustainable living, while at the same time promoting alternative technologies and lifestyles.

The EcoLiving Fair is for the entire family. We have a “Kids Corner” with activities suitable for young people.
