<BR><BR><FONT face="Courier New">Green Country Eco-Expo in Tulsa <BR><BR><BR>The
Earth Friendly Network, LLC in collaboration with Wild Oats<BR>Natural Market,
The M.E.T., Sustainable Tulsa, The Tulsa Parks<BR>Department, and other
environmentally friendly organizations will host<BR>The First Annual Green
Country Eco-Expo at Woodward Park. The<BR>Eco-Expo is a public service event
intended to showcase products,<BR>services and educational approaches to earth
friendly practices and<BR>healthy living that are available to Tulsa area
residents. The event<BR>will be held on September 10th under the canopy of trees
at historic<BR>Woodward Park and will feature live music, food, and fun for
families,<BR>and individuals of all ages. <BR><BR>Lisa Tewis, Mother of two and
owner of Hip Slings for Hip Mamas, says<BR>she is excited that an event like
this is finally being held in Tulsa.<BR>Event coordinators say that they expect
over 100 exhibitors who will<BR>be both interesting and informative. Jane
Talkington Director of Homes<BR>for Life, Inc. will showcase their new Habitat
for Humanity green<BR>community of green homes in Stillwater Oklahoma. Live
music will be<BR>performed by a local drum circle, jazz band, and Native
American<BR>musicians. Food will be provided by Wild Oats, along with plenty
of<BR>tasty samples form local food producers. Carie Cave, president of
The<BR>Earth Friendly Network. LLC, says they hope to re-define the
term<BR>"Green Country" by encouraging "greener" ways of life in Oklahoma.
<BR>Their goal is to have Tulsa listed on The Green Guide's : America's<BR>Top
10 Green Cities for 2006. <BR><BR>Why we're bringing the Eco-Expo to
Tulsa:<BR><BR>The Earth Friendly Network LLC is launching Tulsa's First Annual
Green<BR>Country Eco-Expo to celebrate the increasingly high demand
for<BR>environmentally conscious sustainable healthy options in the
Tulsa<BR>area. Finding the necessary resources for local organic
foods,<BR>alternative health care practitioners, sustainable building
supplies,<BR>etc are not always as easy as driving to the local Super Center.
By<BR>bringing the providers of these products and services to one place
and<BR>informing the public of the impact that their choice make on our
city<BR>and planet, we are helping to improve the lives of Tulsans in many
ways.<BR><BR>Date<BR>Saturday, September 10th, 2005 <BR><BR>Time<BR>9AM -
