Windfall Weekend for the Eco-Conscious
on why going to an environmentally friendly festival is relevant to the interests of all
the 2010 eco festival is opening with a myriad of exhibits, vendors, and events
As much as we all would like for every day to be a big celebration of eco friendly fashion, food, music, and other goodies – that dream is still in the works. But fortunately this weekend of June 12/13 Freedom Clothing Collective will be going to the Windfall Ecology Festival in Newmarket, so we’re not too upset because these two days promise to be filled with all the great environmentally friendly events that one could hope for.
Running for its 9th year, the Windfall Festival is the largest Environmental and Energy Conservation Exposition around, and with its full weekend schedule its understandable why. If you’re thinking of going, consider signing up for ‘Community Power’, ‘Bike Clinic’ or ‘Rainsaver’ workshops that focus on the many ways that we could all become a little more green. An entire section of the festival dedicated to kids will keep them entertained and with a line-up of great independent musicians, prepare for the festival stage to be the eco-soundtrack to one of the most entertaining festivals around.

One of the greatest things about the Windfall Ecology Festival, is that it provides a platform for a list of innovative independent local Canadian businesses to showcase their work – which can vary from public services, to clothes and accessories, to new and better technology. The full list of exhibits and vendors can be found here on the festival page (and no, your eyes do not deceive you – Freedom Clothing Collective is on the list too). The Windfall is worth checking out because it shows us a glimpse into a greener, more sustainable business environment that so many artisans and entrepreneurs are working hard to create.
