Lightr Feet Workshop
Take a small step, make a small change, lighten your environmental impact as you light the way for others
5th Place offers an onsite, interactive workshop easy to implement ways for suburbanites and city dwellers to have a lighter environmental footprint.
Take the step that’s in front of you
At 5th Place we are not only about making our inner world a better place we also see a space to make our outer world better too. We live on the earth, eat from the earth, we breathe its air and drink its water. The earth can survive without us, we cannot survive without the earth.
Finding a way to tread lighter on the earth, to consume less, waste less, eat local, drink clean, breathe fresh, and at the same time to replenish what has been removed is quite easy. It is not necessary to change the world in one day, it is required to make small changes, take small steps.
A series of 3 hour mini workshops will be held at the 5th Place property where practical, everyday solutions and ideas will be shared on how you can reduce your environmental footprint. Suitable for children and a great family outing.
Much of the workshop is spent outdoors so if the weather is inclement the workshop may have to be cancelled. In this case participants will have a choice to have their tickets refunded or transferred to a later date.
