Event Report

This event was made special by the citizens who brought their EVs to educate neighbors about their experiences. Holding the event during the city's farmers market was a great opportunity to engage with people who didn't expect to be discussing electric vehicles, but who came away with a better understanding and new appreciation thanks to the avid support of our participants!
