Ecofest in Derby informs, entertains


Todd Secki of A Place Called Hope in Killingworth shows off Zen, a barred owl, at Saturday's Ecofest in Derby.


Grace Krick, also from A Place Called Hope, tells the audience about her friend, an American Kestrel.



This robot created by Derby artist Rich DiCarlo took the honors in a "trashformation" contest, along with ...



.... this birdhouse constructed out of various pieces of repurposed junk by Ansonia artist Rich DelValle.

Congratulations to both men on their award-winning creations.


And kudos to members of the Derby Cultural Commission for a successful, first-ever Ecofest.

I'm looking forward to next year's event.
