Now in its eighth year, Sustain (formally known as Organic Expo and Green Show) is back in Sydney for one weekend only. Australia’s premier natural and organic lifestyle show, this is our favourite time of year to watch a healthy cooking demonstration, check out a yoga workshop, listen in on a Speaker’s Corner presentation on sustainable fashion or plastic pollution, and otherwise sample the wares of thousands of industry leaders in everything organic! Special celebrity guests at this year’s expo include chef Kylie Kwong, TV presenter and environmental activist Indira Naidoo and horticulturalist Costa Georgiadis. Peppermint will be there this year with our very own stall (with back issues, subscription specials and giveaways)… and we’d love to see you there too! Speaking of giveaways, we have 10 double passes to Sustain’s public show on July 21 and 22 in Sydney’s Moore Park up for grabs. For your chance to win, comment below and tell us who you’re most looking forward to seeing at this year’s event. {Comp closes 12 midday, July 18th 2012. NB: please remember that you must be able to attend the event in Sydney!}.
