Don't Miss Sustainable Ballard!

Mark your calendars and plan to attend the Sustainable Ballard
Festival
on September 29th & 30th.

Ballard, which is fast becoming a rival to Fremont for the "Center of the Universe" title, is sponsoring this two-day, comprehensive festival with:

Hands-on activities—How to Build a Worm Bin, How to Use a Rain Barrel, Knitting, and more
Movies—including "The End of Suburbia" and "How Cuba Survived Peak Oil"
Emergency Preparedness Training
Transportation Alternatives
Local chefs preparing local foods
Song circles, Nordic story-telling, and dancing.

Get to Ballard from Wallingford on the 44 Bus. Other buses go there from other places. Check Metro for schedules.

Hi Lightly Livers,

(Just prooving I read your blog!) We leave for NYC tomorrow night, so will miss seeing you on Thursday and Sunday. Back 9/26. If we see urban gardens and local produce markets, we'll take pictures and talk to the farmers! Love, K.

Bon Voyage, enjoy NYC & keep an eye out for No Impact Man, taking his daughter to school on a bicycle rickshaw!
