MELBOURNE - SUSTAINABLE LIVING FESTIVAL - February 15 - 17th. Location - Federaton square and Riverwalk, Corner Swanston and Flinders Sts, Melbourne CBD, opposite Flinders Street Railway station.
POST FESTIVAL REPORT - This was another great festival and it was great to see those of you who came to have a chat and see the new products. The new 'Pants liner's were a real hit too! We also had lots of great discussions with the menfolk who stopped to see what was going on and various children who's curiosity was piqued by the colorful displays. The reaction of some of them was funny and also heartwarming - anything from 'What's that - ew!!!'. 'Cool idea - I'll tell me mum, really 'sick' colors' (apparently that is a huge compliment).
