EcoFair Toronto

Held every November at the Wychwood Barns, EcoFair Toronto is a one-day showcase that celebrates the wonderful people, environmental groups, and eco-businesses that are helping to create a greener and healthier planet for all. GroBikes has participated for many years and we always love the feeling of community and connection we get, not to mention learning about so many other sustainability-focused initiatives in Toronto.
