Yep, it’s been a while… with all of the preparation for GreenFest<\/a> at Green Options, sustainablog got the short end of the stick. Still thinking about how to handle the situation with my little blog — I do miss writing here — but will have to keep it to an occasional basis for the time being.<\/p>\n

Of the many great experiences that came out of last week’s festivities in Chicago was getting to meet fellow Treehugger writer Leonora Oppenheim<\/a>. If you haven’t yet seen it, Leonora posted a photo of us from GreenFest at TH<\/a>; I also put it up at GO<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Leonora and I will get to hang a bit more tonight — she’s in the Lou’ as part of Kallari Association<\/a>‘s visit. Kallari is a Fair Trade cocoa cooperative in Ecuador, and Leonora, as well as a number of students from Washington University, are involved with it. Tonight, Kallari’s Director of Commerce Carlo Pozo will be speaking at the Missouri Botanical Garden<\/a> (one of my favorite places on the planet, and not just because it’s only two blocks away). The title of his talk is “Sustainable Farming & Building: A Modern Kichwa Tradition in the Making.”<\/p>\n

This all happens at 6:30 tonight in the Shoenberg Auditorium at the Garden. Come by, enjoy the talk, and, more than likely, the chocolate samples (it’s really good stuff).<\/p>\n
