Having moved from St. Louis, where our “model” sustainable home was in the city, it has always puzzled me why we had to go such a long way from the urban core in Rhode Island to learn more about how to live sustainably. The Apeiron Institute home in Coventry is worth the trip, and the summer festival out in the woods a good time, but it is nevertheless a trip.
Now, fortunately, sustainability comes home to the city, this Saturday, with the Providence Sustainable Living Festival.
Accessible by bus. Walkable for many. Genuinely informative and inspiring workshops. More info at livingfest.org.
free, 10am to 6pm, Saturday, Kennedy Plaza and Burnside Park
