The 4th annual, independent Redditch Green Fair aims at being bigger and

better than ever, with 20+ stalls, entertainment, children's fun

activities, free vegan food samples, alternative therapists and lots

more. The event is now firmly established as one of the best eco-events

across the region and best of all it's organized by vegans. And with

FREE admission, you can`t go wrong. Check out the video from last year

WHY A GREEN FAIR?

 

Planet earth is under attack, not from terrorists or Martians but from

you and me, human beings... mankind.

 

We all need to alter the way we live if planet earth is to survive.

Take a long hard look at the way you live your life. There's a fair

chance that pretty much everything you do effects our environment in

some way. Transport, energy, consumerism, food, leisure, waste etc. etc

all have an enormous impact on the planet.

 

For the sake of our children's future, an ever increasing number of

people, organizations & companies are talking about these issues and

choosing the least harmful options. Even the Government is now taking

action, bringing in new laws such as the Climate Change Bill and

offering advice to us all on how we should live in order to reduce our

personal impact.

 

No matter how much you know about planet-friendly living, nobody knows

it all. As always, there'll be lots to learn, see and do at the

Redditch Green Fair.

 

The 4th annual independent Redditch Green Fair will take place in and

around St Stephen's Church in the town centre. The fair will promote

sustainable eco-friendly living by providing a range of green products,

fairtrade goods, organic produce, natural gifts etc. combined with lots

of useful information to help everyone live a cleaner, greener, more

ethical and healthier life. Admission is free.

SUGGESTIONS FOR STALLS & ATTRACTIONS

If you have any suggestions for stalls or other attractions for the

event, please don't keep them to yourself: we should love to hear from

you. Perhaps you run a local green company/organization and would like

to be part of the event. Please contact us.

 

 

ORGANIZERS OF THE EVENT

The Redditch Green Fair is made possible thanks to the combined efforts

of volunteers from various local grassroots green groups, who originally

joined forces to stage the 2006 Fair under the banner of Redditch Green

Alliance. Since then the groups involved have continued to work

together on various issues and have changed their name to Redditch

Alliance of Greens (RAG). The alliance consists of local environmental,

ethical and social justice groups, all working towards a more

sustainable town and planet.
