Partners: ishi vest, Glass House Shirtmakers, and Gardeeneers, all my friends and all a part of our entrepreneur group Coffee and Conversation, were at the Chicago Green Festival this last weekend.  ishi and Glass House shared a booth, slinging their wares and together gave a talk on taking the eco out of ecofashion.  

The Gardeneers also gave a talk and then went on to WIN A $5,000 grant, winning a vote by attendees of the festival.  Amazing!
