    Adding more sites to the directory today. I seem to be getting a lot of submissions that are strictly gardening blogs. While I’m all for more gardens, I’m more interested in gardening blogs that talk about things like organic gardening, homesteading, self sufficiency and growing food rather than just showing off your fancy schmancy 3 acre Petit Versailles garden.

    Also, please don’t be angry that your blog isn’t accepted into the directory. I’m looking for content that is relevant. If your blog doesn’t have at least 60% content that deals with green, eco and sustainable content, it won’t fit with the project. Also, reblogged material is getting way too common these days, so no more of that. Be original, be detailed and be focused on blog topics. There are way too many general themed green blogs out there. The blogs I find more interesting are those who are focused on a particular subject, location, idea or event.

    Breezed through the show floor in less than 30 minutes. Attendance seems to be down from years past due to the economy and the other natural products trade shows.
