The Off Grid Lifestyle Expo is based on a system and lifestyle designed to help people function without the support of infrastructure, such as an Electricity Grid. For example, off-grid can be a stand-alone system or microgrids typically used to provide a smaller community with electricity.

The term OFF THE GRID means: not connected to public utilities like electricity or supplied water, choosing to live in a self-sufficient manner. Many people also grow their own food and have learnt crafts and skills to assist with this maintaining their lifestyle such as, weaving and spinning, bread and cheese making, pottery and carpentry, often reusing, recycling and repurposing existing items to reduce waste.

Join us for a weekend exploring the lifestyle choices of living off grid. Our region has some wonderful businesses developing innovated ideas to help people live off grid but still comfortable.

We will be showcasing a diverse array of sustainable living ideas & emerging technologies.

The sale of land and rural properties in our region has grown significantly in the past 18 months, as it has in many other parts of Australia. The reason for the lifestyle change has to do with the increase in people downsizing, such as the tiny home movement, and going off grid for a number of reasons, including reducing the cost of living and the minimising the impact we are having on the planet.
