SUSTAINABLE LIVING
FESTIVAL
Bendigo Sustainability Group and The City of Greater Bendigo invites businesses and community organisations to
participate in a celebration of sustainability at Bendigo Town Hall and the surrounding Library gardens. The 2019
Bendigo Sustainable Living Festival aims to showcase the very best of sustainable living products, programs and services
that can be implemented in Central Victoria. This year’s Festival will be dedicated to answering the question;

         “What can we do to contribute to a Sustainable Future for our City?”

We invite participants from all over Victoria to showcase their products and services that positively contribute to
practical solutions for both businesses and householders across Central Victoria. This year we will be organising the
layout of the festival and our program of presentations to reflect the following themes;

         The Waste Wing – reduce, reuse, recycle, repair, compost...

         The Power Promenade – solar, battery storage, renewables…

         The Living Lane – sustainable construction materials, double glazing, tiny houses…

         The Transport Terrace – electric cars and bicycles

         The Good Food Garden – local food systems, Farmers’ Market, sustainable home gardens, regenerative
          agriculture…

         The Conservation Corner – ethical approaches to tackling climate change and preserving our planet

         The Resource Roundabout – an accessible repository for practical information

With an anticipated 2,000 - 3,000 attendees, the fair is a great way to interact face-to-face with your customers. Please
join us on our journey towards a cleaner and greener future for our region.
