The Great Canadian EcoFest, in Komoka, on June 23rd, 2013 was a really cool event. I didn't count, but I 'm guessing there were over 40 vendors, as well as native dances, live music, and a raptor show.
We met lots of people at the Transition Middlesex booth, at which we had a raffle for John Seymour's The Self-Sufficient Life, and How to Live It, and a silent auction for a Pineapple Guava plant. The night before, Julie and I scrambled to put together the content for the display board that someone was nice enough to give us for free at a yard sale, and Robin and Wendy graciously talked to people and shared info about what Transition is at the booth. Did I mention there were free buttons that Jeremiah made?
My son's favourite part, by far, was these steam-powered trains that you could ride behind - tucked in behind the railway museum (by the Komoka Community Centre). They'll be giving rides on them on Canada Day too...don't miss it!
