The Downtown Alliance presents Live Green, the 5th Annual Downtown Sustainable Living Festival. This event—which is becoming the most recognized environmental fair in the State of Utah—is educational, entertaining, and engaging. More than 100 vendors will be at Live Green, including a variety of businesses that share the vision of providing green guidance and recyclable resources. During Live Green, the public will have the opportunity to learn about the green resources in your community.
Join your conscientious community for this festive occasion, explore the many options for environmentally-friendly living, and experience some of the following exhibits and demonstrations:

Conversation Café: Meet with local advocates to discuss significant issues that affect daily life along the Wasatch Front.
 

Alternative Transportation Exhibitors: Talk to vehicle owners, inventors, and businesses about alternatives: biodiesel, solar-powered, electric, natural gas, and pedal-powered.

Local Plant Vendors: Add some “green” to your life. A variety of vendors will be selling locally-grown bedding plants, and Master Gardeners will offer advice on the proper plants for your plot.

Sustainable Products and Businesses: Become familiar with businesses that strive to reduce carbon footprints. (Recycled paper products, low-water toilets, recycled timber buildings, and much more.)

Builders and Architects: Learn more about the benefits of living downtown and using sustainable products for building. Downtown Salt Lake City is home to leaders in green building design.

Eco-Activities for Kids: Bring the entire family to Live Green. Teaching children about conservation and preservation gives profound hope for a healthier and more sustainable future.

Community Advocates: be introduced to the organizations that fight the good fight. Learn about what issues different groups support and volunteer opportunities in the non-profit community.

Food Vendors and Beer Garden: Arrive hungry and linger longer. Enjoy food and drink from a selection of organic and natural food vendors.

Live Music: Take a spin on the bike to generate power for our “Pedal-Powered Music Stage” while listening to the rhythmic sounds of favorite local musicians.
