With lectures on everything from bamboo, slow money, to hemp; a film screening of The Garden; and speakers including Marion Nestle, Ari Derfel, and Paul Stamets; PLUS a party featuring El Circo and lots of great music on opening night, Greenfest SF should be pretty amazing this year! It all starts this weekend, November 7th.
It doesn’t even cost that much to attend, which I think makes it that much better – $10 if you bike there. That’s what I’m talkin’ about!
Before the festival opens, there’s already plenty of activities starting with Green Week throughout the bay area, like an open house at Alemany Farm, where one can participate in urban gardening projects right here in San Francisco. Check the guide for others like this.
