The festival coordinators expect about 20,000 people and their reusable water bottles to descend upon the Headhouse Square section of the city\u00a0located on Second Street between Lombard and South Streets.<\/p>\n<p>The theme for this year&#8217;s festival is water quality. There will be a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenfestphilly.org\/features\/water_quality.php\" target=\"_blank\">Water Quality Symposium<\/a>\u00a0where speakers will cover topics such as Residential Water Use and What&#8217;s Happening In Your River? (that would be the Delaware River for those unfamiliar with the region). There will also be several short films at the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenfestphilly.org\/Film.php\" target=\"_blank\">EcoFilm Forum<\/a> that will cover water topics.<\/p>\n<p>While water is the theme of this year&#8217;s festival there will be much more going on. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenfestphilly.org\/features\/exhibits.php\" target=\"_blank\">200 exhibitors<\/a> will display their green causes\/services\/merchandise. There will be plenty of kids activities and even a Sweet Green Organic Pastry\/Dessert Contest. Oh, YUM! And much, much more.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->I&#8217;m really looking forward to spending the day in the city at GreenFest Philly. What am I most looking forward to? I could be all professional and tell you that it&#8217;s getting information that I can use to report back to you next week. And I am looking forward to that. But, if I&#8217;m going to be honest, what I am most looking forward to is the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenfestphilly.org\/Fashion.php\" target=\"_blank\">Eco-Exchange Fashion Show and Clothing Swap<\/a>. I&#8217;ll be taking a backpack full of clothes to add to the clothing swap and perhaps bring home a few new-to-me items.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re planning on going to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenfestphilly.org\/index.php\" target=\"_blank\">GreenFest Philly<\/a>, the festival runs from 11am to 6pm.
