EcoFest 2015 is a community event organized by Learning Gate Community School, the City of Tampa and the USF Patel College of Global Sustainability to celebrate the many businesses, organizations, and individuals in the Tampa Bay area dedicated to the principles of sustainability - Ecology, Equity and Economy. There will be live music, workshops, demonstrations, informational booths, green living products and services. Some local artists, green businesses, environmental organizations, alternative health practitioners, renewable energy specialists, organic farms and gardens with produce will be in attendance. Last year's EcoFest drew more than 4,500 participants and was voted by the U.S. Green Building Council's Center for Green Schools as the "Best Community Event"! The Mayor of Tampa attended the event and proclaimed the day of the event Earth Day Tampa Bay.
