The Not-So-Simple Living Fair, a weekend of hands-on workshops and demonstrations celebrating rural living and homesteading skills, will be held July 22nd, 23rd, and 24th at the Mendocino County Fairgrounds in Boonville.
The weekend starts on Friday night at dusk with a Camp-out Cabaret in the campground at the Fairgrounds (bring a song, poem or story to share). Workshops and ongoing demonstrations will be offered all day Saturday and Sunday. Saturday evening there will be a Local Food Potluck Dinner (please bring food to share and your own plate, cup and utensils to eat with). Music and dancing with Pura Vida will round out and energize the evening.
Displays and demonstrations, the Conversation Café, Tool Show and Tell, and Marketplace will be on-going throughout the weekend. Participants will have the opportunity to share skills and ideas.
Admission is $20.00/day or $30.00/weekend, plus $10/car/night for camping. RV hookups are available: call the camp host at (831) 238-5345. Youth 16 and under are free. No dogs are allowed on the Fairgrounds.

WE ARE OUTSIDE: Expect warm weather. There is some shade, but wear a hat and appropriate clothes.
NO DOGS PERMITTED.
BRING YOUR OWN PLACE SETTING: Limit the amount of stuff we send to the landfill and help develop the habit of using our own dishes for take out food as well as potlucks.
