Now that the dust has settled from the Mother Earth News Fair in Puyallup, Washington and is now preparing to cause an organic homesteading stir in Seven Springs, Pennsylvania, I just wanted to express my gratitude for the amazing time that I had in Puyallup. My boyfriend and I traveled from Orlando, FL with the expectation that we were going to encounter a life-changing experience. From the cramped seating on our flights, time change adjusting and dealing with the drastic temperature change, it was well worth it. I felt like a kid in a candy store.

Sometimes on the sustainable and organic journey, it can get lonely. However, when I went to the Mother Earth News Fair, it was so nice to talk with people that are like me. Foodies, organic farmers, sustainability experts and other interested parties. I remember sitting in the VIP lounge, talking about Codex Alimentarius and feeling so glad that the person I was speaking to didn’t think I came from Mars. And of course, the speakers were awesome!
