DAYLIGHT: Go Green Expo! Earthy Peachy Loved It.

GO GREEN EXPO, the nation’s leading eco-focused, interactive green-living showcase, heads to New York March 19-21, 2010 with earth-friendly products, engaging programming and simple steps for eco-living for all New Yorkers, no matter what their shade of green. Peachy Deegan checked this out today and loved it! We will be bringing you coverage of the very best from this show soon in the coming days. It was great to see Soda Stream there as the Penguin is one of our absolute favorites, and we were happy to see Riverkeeper represented too. We would encourage all of you to attend this weekend.

The event, which is open to everyone from the savviest environmentalist to the eco-curious, features All American Green in every category giving the tri-state a chance to explore and discover brand new environmentally-friendly products and time-tested favorites like fashionable reusable bags and a wide variety of repurposed goods.

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
