Sustainability in Hawaii...yes grow your own! - nmorata - 11-16-2009

In spite of a major storm that happened on Saturday, there was a really good turnout of vendors, non-profits and participants at the Puna Self Sustainability Expo in Leilani Estates.

I went to really gain a better understanding about this expo and all the exhibitors in general...my synopsis is that people in Puna Totally Rock! We totally believe in self-sustainability and it starts at the grass roots out of economics, green awareness and of course aloha aina.


Attached are some highlights to the event....come and make it for the next one next year if you can...

Great photos, Noel - and nice blog! I made it to the expo around noon, and with the crazy weather was surprised to find as many folks as were there. I scored a great wind up pocket LED flashlight for five bucks.(I hate batteries!)See you at the next, hopefully drier, expo.
