Artificial Grass Girl

Yesterday, we made it a family outing to go and see what was going on at the Go Green Expo at the Los Angeles Convention Center. They offered a variety of of the latest trends in green products and services. The booths were grouped by categories; green clothing, green pet products, green home services, etc.

One of our goals at Purchase Green is to become the premier online department store for GREEN products. So we are always on the look-out for our next line of products. Since we carry artificial grass and pet products, our next line will probably be something that will blend in with these lines.

So we were particularly eyeing the environmentally-friendly pet products. There were a couple that I liked....The first was a pet vitamin company called Dancing Paws. Pet multi-vitamins and joint formulas made from natural materials.  They also sell healthy organic dog treats. The other was natural pet cleaning supplies called Eco-Me.  They sell an interesting variety of pet shampoos, oils, and cleaning supplies, including biodegradable pet waste baggies.

The next group of products that I found fascinating were the mini-solar powered gadgets. Tiny solar cell phone and computer chargers (Energy Acumen Solar ), and the backpack with solar panels on the front that will also charge your electronics while you are out and about. Way cool....I want one!

The most creative group was the Eco-Panda booth. Beautiful bikini-clad girls modeling bathing suits created from recycled nylon materials. These were high quality swimsuits in gorgeous patterns that any woman would love to wear. One of their logos is "Nylon Fishing Nets to Fashionable Swimwear". One lovely girl handed my very impatient 3-year old daughter a stuffed panda bear and made her day. Thank you Eco-Panda!

In general, I was really impressed with the variety of products and how far the technology has come.
