* Take a spin in the latest hybrid vehicles at the Green Living Test-Drive

I think a better question is what am I NOT interested in! :) It all sounds awesome. I think I'm most looking forward to learning about more local organic/earth friendly clothing places. Oh, and the food. And wine. And...
I'm interested in green home reno ideas. And of course, the food. I always like to try the food!
Meeting Eco-Chick, of course. . .and listening to Stephen Lewis. . .I think he's amazing !!

Hi! I am looking forward to Farm Fresh Fare. Not only will I get to try what Toronto chefs will create with local farmers and producers but proceeds will help create school gardens and help children better understand where food comes from and healthy diets!!! gema.kochovski@ontario.ca
Hi:
I'm interested in seeing what kind of new innovations there are in "green living".

I attended last year and was reasonably impressed with the turn out. I'm anticipating more in the way of grassroots organizations advocating for environmental issues and related causes (hoping for more of an emphasis on education, and less on consumer goods).
Really looking forward to hearing Stephen Lewis - he's been an impression of mine for sometime now. Also curious to hear the author of "Ecoholic" speak to her experiences.
Overall, really keen to explore potential networking opportunities with environmental organizations and activists alike - and possibly learn about some new products/living alternatives to reduce my environmental footprint.
Lots to learn, I hope! Thanks, Rhiannon Myers

This year, I want to see MORE authentic green companies and products out there. Just because the label says 'all natural' it does not mean it is green. A more thorough definition of green should be given.
I agree with Candace...I would rather comment on what I DO NOT want to see this year. I found that last year's show was a lot of green washing. I know there was a panel of green judges to assess who can enter the show but I do not think it was that well done.
