A coworker friend and I spent all day at the green festival at the DC convention center on Saturday. We spent nearly six hours there--there were so many great vendors and events and speakers. In addition to a minimassage and a 15-minute acupuncture session at the booth for Tulsi holistic living center, as well as delicious Indian, vegetarian fare from one of my favorite restaurants in DC--Nirvana--I got information from so many great vendors. Here are some links to things that I picked up that I found to be pretty cool:
