I just gave an update on the Sustainability Expo below....considering that we had an amazing storm front this Saturday, there was still a good turnout and a nice mix of vendors and non-profits participating in the 2nd annual event.

Hope you can all make it for the next event next year, enjoy the pics below to preview.
