Sustainable Living Exhibition nears

These water-wise plants will brighten up any corner in your garden.

ETHEKWINI Municipality is gearing up to host a bumper Sustainable Living Exhibition this year with more than 250 exhibitors showcasing their greening products and services.

The exhibition is Durban’s premier greening event that aims to highlight what ordinary people can do to contribute towards caring for the environment and creating a better life.

The event promises to be a fun, educational and informative showcase of all things green and sustainable.

The exhibition comes at a time when KZN is feeling the effects of climate change, with water restrictions implemented in various areas. Load shedding also impacts residents’ lives regularly. “The time has come for us to start making changes to our lifestyles and live more sustainably if we have not done so, and there is no better platform to learn how to do this than at the Sustainable Living Exhibition,” said Mayor James Nxumalo. “Packed with water saving tanks, energy saving gadgets, recycling alternatives, food and water wise garden advice and ideas, the exhibition will make it easy for you to green your lifestyle.”

The BotSoc plant fair, also taking place at the exhibition, will have thousands of indigenous plants on sale just in time for spring so you can spruce up your garden. These water-wise plants will brighten up any corner in your garden.

Be sure not to miss the Sustainable Living Exhibition which has become Durban’s greening hub. The event is on from 14 to 16 August 2015 at the Durban Exhibition Centre. Entry is free.
