Sustainability Festival a Success

On Sunday 26 February Council delivered the annual Sustainability Festival as part of the National Sustainable Living Festival 2023. The festival was curated to show the community just how easy it is for individuals to make impactful environmental change.

Council would like to thank Dandenong Market for hosting the event and to all the traders who kept festival goers fed throughout the day. Attendees were lucky to also receive delicious locally-brewed kombucha from local Dandenong South business, Remedy Drinks.

Local business owners who attended the event spoke with Solar Victoria about their Solar for Business Program, an initiative designed to support Victorian businesses to reduce their energy costs by accessing the benefits of renewable energy. You can still apply for this program, see link at the end of the article for further information.

In the week leading up to the main event day, The Lorax was screened at the Open Air Movies at Springvale Community Hub. The film was preceded by a pot planting activity facilitated by Bunnings Warehouse Dandenong South and was a huge hit with families.

Thank you to all our local businesses who were a part of the day and to residents for attending.
