Earth Day on the Greenway

On Saturday, the big Earth Day festivities were on in Luray. Here’s the home page: http://www.earthdayonthegreenway.com/index.php

We made a stop in the afternoon while we were running errands. While we were there, we listened to a panel discussion on a range of issues, including forest management, local food growing (Heather from Public House was on the panel), and the Fibrowatt campaign were some of the discussions.

We also ran into “Firkin-Good”, Deanne, whom I met through the Fibrowatt efforts. She’s been part of the event for the last few years, and was very busy doing photography and coordination. Her husband’s band SleePFeeDeR was set to perform later in the afternoon, but we missed the show.

Here are a couple of photos of the events. Local sponsors for the event put up tents with information and merchandise – I’ve got one of Howard here from Appalachian Outdoors Adventures. Andy was there too, listening to the panel while I was taking this…earlier in the day we’d run into Gary and Linda in the shop.
