This weekend, I'll be going to Washington, D.C.'s Green Festival, and I'll be twittering about my experience there. Follow my tweets here. Green Festival, sponored by Global Exchange and Co-Op America, the festival features 150 speakers and 350 green businesses, from food to fashion to green jobs and education. A few things I'm looking forward to:

--Fair trade chocolate

--Meeting other green bloggers

--Hearing from speaker Barbara Ehrenreich

--Learning about the greening of the beauty industry

--An environmental film festival

--Bicycle safety workshops

--And of course, organic beer and vegetarian food.
