Join us for this 2-day party with a purpose!
Come celebrate what’s working in our communities — for people, for business and for the environment. You’ll enjoy more than 150 visionary speakers, great how-to workshops, interactive kids’ activities, delicious organic cuisine and diverse live music. Shop in our extensive green marketplace of more than 300 exhibits — everything from all-natural cleaning products and Fair Trade gifts to solar panels, eco-cars and socially-responsible investing. You’ll find inspirational and practical ideas for healthy, earth-friendly living at Green Festival.
Panel - Sustainable Seafood: Healthier for Everyone(April 12 at noon)
Unsustainable fishing practices threaten fish populations and their habitat, and the entire food chain as a result. Fortunately, as consumers, we can choose seafood products that keep habitats healthy and productive through responsible management and harvesting practices. This panel of experts (including MAP's Executive Director, Alfredo Quarto) consisting of an engineer, a fisherwoman/advocate, and a local fisherman, will show you ways you can make seafood choices that help protect marine ecosystems.
