Living La Vida Eco is set to come back to downtown Plymouth next with the return of the Green Street Fair.
The fair is all about living and encouraging an eco-friendly, sustainable lifestyle. It's geared toward spreading the word about the benefits of sustainable, organic and eco-friendly products and services.
Next year it will be held May 1-3. The city is allowing the fair to expand to three days from two because of the success of last year's inaugural event. Officials estimate that 90,000 people attended the fair that featured 150 vendors of green products.
This year the Green Street Fair will feature a market village, speakers, live music, street performers, organic cuisine and public art.
Terri O’Brien, partner of Green Street Fair Inc., discusses their recycling initiatives for the 2009 event.
"We are stepping up our recycling efforts even more at the 2009 Green Street Fair," says Terri O’Brien, partner of Green Street Fair. "In addition to full-service recycling stations, the event will also offer manned compost stations which will be available to cleanly dispose of food and food service items."
