The longest running sustainable energy fair in the country is coming up. The 31st Annual Crestone Energy Fair is happening on Saturday, September 12th. Here to explain more about hempcrete, this year’s keynote speaker, the energy fair’s future, their new social media channels, how you can attend in person or virtually, their need for volunteers and so much more are Director Lisa Bodey, Onsite Producer Nick Nevares and Helper At Large Donovan Spitzman.
The Crestone Energy Fair continues to be a tradition in the San Luis Valley for thirty one years, bringing innovative ideas in construction, lifestyle, and sustainability to the region. This event continues to be one of the longest running sustainability fairs in the nation, and in the past has included a weekend of educational presentations, community symposiums, hands on demonstrations, and guided home tours. This year, however, we find ourselves adapting to the current conditions and will be presenting the same content in a virtual forum, as well as a single day event that will be live streamed with online and live Q&A integrated. This is new territory for the event, but we are confident that we will successfully implement this format. Run by committed volunteers, this free event is committed to improving the lives of all attendees by empowering them to learn and experience the necessary skills to use alternative building methodologies and materials in future projects. With a past attendance exceeding 500 people, we are excited to continue the energy fair to a broader online audience.
