Enjoy 2 days of speakers, tours, and workshops about Living with Nature in sustainable ways. Located just 70 miles north of Big Bend National Park, Marathon Texas is the "Gateway to Big Bend." Marathon is also a community that is working to make itself ecologically sustainable.
 

“Living With Nature IV” will feature lectures, workshops, nature tours, and vendor displays highlighting eco-construction, off-the-grid living, sustainable gardening, low impact development, and other arid land disciplines. Beginning with a welcome reception on the evening of Friday August 1st at Eve's Garden Organic Bed and Breakfast, nightly events will feature local West Texas arts and live music. The event will conclude by midday Sunday to allow out-of-towners time to travel home.
 

Tickets for the event are: $10 per day for individuals, $15 for both days (plus the welcome reception); young people under age 18 are free. Tickets can be ordered direct from this website by clicking on 'Sign Up'. You can also find information and links to Marathon’s quality lodging-places on the 'Lodging' page. Some activities such as tours and workshops involve extra fees.
