John Dromgoole and other Experts Teach Organic Gardening at Austin Green Living Expo

The Austin Green Living Expo features DOZENS of educational opportunities for everyone.  Last blog I featured our Green Building Stage.  This week is our Sustainable Living Stage:

We are proud to bring the Organic Gardening Expertise of John Dromgoole to the Expo.  He will teach the Basics of Organic Gardening on Saturday at 2pm, and Organic Lawn Care on Sunday at 1pm

Want more Gardening Seminars?  We have Austin Watershed discussing Green Garden Design; Brite Ideas Hydroponics presenting the "Green" Greenhouse; Citizen Gardener will teach us how to grow our own food in our backyard; Travis County Master Gardeners will discuss Backyard Chickens as Organic Gardening Partners; and Dick Pierce will be presenting for the Austin Permaculture Guild.

Maybe you’re not a gardener — not to worry, there’s plenty more for you on the Sustainable Living Stage!  Learn about Electro Magnetic Fields and their effect on your health; learn to create a Climate Action Plan for your Home or Office; Ten Thousand Villages will help you understand Fair Trade and its positive environmental impact; Wondercide will uncover the truth behind pesticides and wood treatments to help you avoid toxicities for your children and pets; and Health Through Nature



will explain how the green movement is not a fad but a lifestyle change for your health and vitality.

Helping to get the KIDS involved in your waste reduction and organic gardening efforts, Break It Down will present "Help Ernie Break It Down" in the Green Kids Zone.  (Ernie D Earthworm is the name of our logo mascot!)

If you, like many, have been confused by "what is really green" while shopping the shelves — Sunday at 2pm Michelle Hallahan of Ecologic is a Green Seal Consultant and will help clarify Green Standards and Green Washing.
