Running over the weekend of 12-13 May, highlights included the International Trashion Fashion Show, with trash couture described as “marine trash reborn as art” by American-born artist Marina DeBris.

Raw food advocate, Angela Kapudija, held a Raw Food “Cooking” Show highlighting the health benefits of a raw food diet.

Rosnay Organic Wines which we featured in last year’s EcoXpo showcased their range of organic wines, pastes and jams and will soon be launching a new preservative-free Mouvedre.

Eco-friendly hemp products were on display with Dr Dionne Payn explaining the benefits of hemp fibres in insulation and as a construction material.
