Author of nine books, including The Party's Over, Peak Everything, and Blackout, Richard Heinberg is widely regarded as one of the world's most effective communicators of the urgent need to transition away from fossil fuels. (more about Richard)
Schlitz Creek and Joe Reilly top the musical lineup. Plus we'll have more great presenters, growers & vendors, food, a family tent for youngsters, and fun activities for the whole family!
Check out fresh locally-grown produce and connect with ecologically sound resources in our community. Exhibitors include farmers, artisans, eco-villagers, and sustainability and natural wellness experts. Also look forward to hayrides, demonstrations of farming skills and helpful food tips, and more.
