A great time was had by all: new friendships, bright ideas, and unique experiences…what more could we ask for…
A community electronics recycling effort from 9am-12pm kept hundreds of items out of the landfill. Many attendees also helped with the Riparian Buffer Plantings, working to improve the grounds of the Kimberton Waldorf School, where the event was held.
A diverse collection of local companies set up tables, some selling their wonderful, sustainable items so that attendees had something special to take with them, others sharing their vast knowledge on “how to do the right thing.” Some of the locals included:
Maysie’s Farm (beautiful hand-picked produce and seedlings), Donald Pell Gardens (also gave a talk), Eastern PA Permaculture Guild, Brown Paper Bugs (beautiful paintings of bugs and reptiles on recycled brown paper), Walt’s Swarmbustin’ Honey (complete with a glass observation hive), Kolb’s Dairy, Weimer’s Organics, John Keslick (the famous Tree Biologist), Zukay Live Food, Sun and Earth Cleaning Products (with tons of generous samples), Gaia Herbs, the friendly ladies of SunnyPaw Dog Treats, Nancy Boudrie of Awaken with Light and her talented daughter, Yellow Springs Farm (gorgeous native plants and goat cheese), Organic Mechanic Soil, Camphill Kimberton Hills and Sweetwater Baking (handcrafted baked goods and incredible functional art), Greenable Building Products (so many gorgeously green options)
Many more!
We were especially lucky to have PASA (Pennsylvania Assn. for Sustainable Agriculture) arrive with the official Buy Fresh Buy Local Toyota Prius!
Lots of free talks: Soil Chemistry, Green Roofs, Sustainable Landscaping, Sustainable Agriculture…and much more.
In addition to the generous samples and gifts, three lucky attendees won a mountain bike, a gift card, and a book on natural cleaning methods, all part of our KWF raffle.
We took a tour of the incredible Kimberton Waldorf School (www.kimberton.org) Garden Building and the organic gardens created by the students, which the school uses to support many of its student lunches.
Attendees came from all around: Philadelphia, Wilmington, the Main Line…all looking to be part of this little green gathering. The cloudy, windy weather didn’t keep anyone away! We hope to reach out even further next year, to educate more people and welcome them to think about their daily impact on the Earth.
Overall, what a great vibe of community, cooperation, friendship, and a shared interest in preserving the Earth for future generations. To us, that’s the definition of a successful event! Thanks so much to all who participated. We are already planning for next year…
