Hello, San Francisco!

Looking for something to do this weekend? Why not come on over to the 7th Annual Green Festival on November 14, 15, & 16, 2008 at the San Francisco Concourse Exhibition Center and the Giftcenter Pavilion Theater. The event is a joint project of Global Exchange and Co-op America, two leading non-profits who have dedicated their energies to environmental and social justice for over 25 years.

Bring the kids, bring your friends – learn all about one of the biggest topics of discussion in the election – clean energy production in all its many forms!

We’ll be there with cowbells on, ringing the praises of organic cotton clothing for everyone! There’s so much to do, including a fashion show featuring Holy Cow organic apparel – MOO-RAY!

Here’s a little more info, courtesy of the Green Team at the San Francisco Green Festival:
