Hunter Organic Growers Society have a stand at the Living Smart Festival.


The Living Smart Festival is one of Australia’s largest community sustainability events, with a mission to encourage people to learn about and embrace everyday sustainability practices. 


The 2024 event will see a one-day festival held on Saturday 21 September 2024 from 9am to 3pm.


A free day of workshops, demonstrations, market stalls and presentations by some of Australia's most prominent and innovative personalities in the field of sustainability, headlined by Steph De Sousa from MasterChef, Gina Chick from Alone Australia and Paul West from River Cottage Australia. A multicultural zone invites workshops, music and food celebrating cultural diversity in our city across multiple stages, with underlying themes of sustainability and conservation. Let's think global, act local.


The event will also showcase sustainable market stalls, local community organisations, live music, roving performers and free kids’ activities. 


Come and support HOGS by helping out at our stand on the day. Even 30 minutes can make a big difference. We would love to see you there - please send us an email if you know you can help out, or just turn up on the day if that works better for you.


Yours in growing

The HOGS crew

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF COUNTRY

We acknowledge the tradition custodians of the lands of the Hunter region, the Awabakal, Worimi and Wonnarua peoples. We pay our respects to their elders past and present. 

​

We acknowledge their deep contributions to sustainable agriculture and land stewardship. They were our first farmers and caretakers of country - the soils, rivers and seas. 

We are gardeners, farmers, and first time producers of our own backyard fodder, who meet monthly to learn about living and growing sustainably in the Hunter Valley and surrounds.
