Los Angeles has been one of Green Festival®’s five host cities, nationally, since 2010.  Dr. Basler says this year’s Los Angeles Green Festival® is larger than ever before, as it premieres some new features!

On this special edition of Over Coffee®, you’ll hear:

• Some of the new features and panels that will be happening at the 2016 Los Angeles Green Festival;

• Who are some of the new independent “green” entrepreneurs for whom to look, on the exhibit floor;

• What it’s like to take a green test drive in a new electric car;

• Some of the animal-related organizations and exhibitors to which animal lovers can look forward (hint: the Gentle Barn has rescue animals again, but there are first-timers this year!);

• What you’ll find at the yoga pavilions, making their first appearance this year at the Los Angeles Green Festival®.

• Some of the future plans for Green Festival, as they work to expand their program nationally.
