… plus vendors, and exhibitors and even a treasure hunt for the kids!  The idea is to get people to think about all the practices they can do to help with sustainability.

A new activity this year is a mystery skit, “The Mystery at Sustainable Ramona” starring Aubry Leigh. Participants will guess about 20 sustainable practices based on clues, and prizes will be awarded.  The Grand Prize is an owl box from Ramona Barn Owls!

There will be food trucks, and local beer and wine available. Plus a treasure hunt for the kiddos.

Suggested donation is $15 for adults (children are admitted free) – but everyone is invited to attend whether or not donation is an option. For more information, see SustainableRamona.com or @SustainableRamona on Facebook and Instagram. Also find us on YouTube!
