What a great event! So many ethical and green businesses in one place and a great opportunity for unsigned musicians to get some exposure. Very well organised – shame about the rainy weather which impacted on it’s success. We hope there will be a Greenfest 2009!

Hi Shannon
Thank you for the feedback. I would hope that there will be a Greenfest 2009. The demand for eco-friendly and ethical products is growing and these events are important for connecting companies and consumers, building ethical consumerism and taking it mainstream. As it is held in the sunshine state, hopefully the sun will be shining for the event next year.
