Joy and light at Plett for Peace

The fourth annual Plett for Peace Festival of Lights was the first entirely free-of-charge, off-the-grid event of its kind in this region.

The fourth annual Plett for Peace Festival of Lights took place on Central Beach last week.

It was the first entirely free-of-charge, off-the-grid event of its kind in this region. No money changed hands. Instead people took plants and seeds to be planted through The Green Ticket initiative (www.thegreenticket.org).

Various participants and local businesses took along food to share and the organisers cooked some dishes from donated ingredients. Others enjoyed private picnics with their families.

There was also singing, dancing, live music, fire-dancing, drumming, various speakers on sustainability and a guided meditation by Leela Verity at the well-attended event.
