On September 20-21, 2008, Green with Envy Interior Decorating, LLC exhibited at the Rocky Mountain Sustainable Living Fair at the Rocky Mountain Raptor Center in Ft. Collins, Colorado. “The Sustainable Living Fair is a solution based, hands-on, family oriented event designed to educate people of all ages and backgrounds about Sustainable Living Practices, Renewable Energy, Environmental & Social Responsibility, Natural Health, Green Building, Alternative Vehicles, Organic Agriculture, Local Economies and more.” The fair was a huge success with over 12,000 people attending. Keynote speakers included Ed Begley, Jr.. There were 200 exhibitors, over 50 workshops, entertainment, food and children’s areas! (http://www.sustainablelivingassociation.org/thefair/)
Green with Envy Interior Decorating, LLC was the only eco-friendly interior decorating firm at the fair. We were happy to be the source for “green” interiors to the 100s of people who had questions and were interested in design work that aligned with their environmentally friendly values. We met so many wonderful people! People were most impressed that 95% of the items used to decorate the booth were found in consignment stores, antique stores or were products made from recycled, nontoxic materials. In addition, we were able to build coalitions with numerous other exhibitors who all have contributed uniquely to the green movement. It was a fun and successful two day affair! Come out and look for us next year at the 2009 Rocky Mountain Sustainable Living Fair!
