The Mother Earth News Fair returns to Seven Springs Mountain Resort to celebrate a sustainable lifestyle. From noon on Friday, September 17, until 5 p.m. Sunday, September 19, the pages of Mother Earth News will come alive.

Walking the picturesque grounds of the resort brings visitors to a wide variety of displays and vendors, ranging from tools to produce, from herbal remedies to fresh bread. All of the exhibitors, including book authors and innovators, will be more than happy to share their passion with Fair participants. The workshops offered in past years have focused on real foods, natural health, organic gardening, self-reliance, and more. One workshop shows participants how to grow their own medicinal herb garden, and another on natural beekeeping will help farmers or gardeners add beehives to their property.

The workshops offer something for everyone, providing information and details on everything sustainable and helping visitors expand their knowledge with hard-won experience and advice.

Mother Earth News also takes the Fairs online. Join the fun with a subscription for $2.99 a month to view more than 100 workshop videos and dozens of classes, as well as interactive Q&A sessions. Dozens of new workshops are in development to provide participants the best and most recent information on a self-reliant lifestyle.

-When you sign up for a course, you gain access to experts in a wide range of topics. Choose from courses on producing maple syrup, raising pigs, taking poultry to market, fermenting beverages, or planning a garden. Each includes a number of videos from experts in the field on specific areas of interest. Many of the instructors are also presenters at the inperson Fairs.

For instance, when you participate in the Fresh Breads from Scratch Course, you’ll master homemade bread with lessons on Fresh Flour from Grains with April Jones, Sourdough Starter, Simplified! with Jessica Moody, and Introduction to Quick Breads with Reneice Charles, among other classes.
