Mobile Tour


Overview

Started in 2009, the GLP “Mobile Tour” is a popular and flexible grass-roots multi-media event tour that travels through large, medium, and small cities across North America. Venues for hosting the tour include top-tier regional festivals, trade shows, specialty retail stores, and schools (K-12, college) nationwide.

The Spring season for the Mobile Tour has just kicked off in Salt Lake City, and continues through the Southwest and then up the California Coast. Check below for the most up-to-date schedule.

Starting 2010, the GLP Mobile Tour will be documenting local sustainability projects as they travel the country. These grassroots Webisodes will be available to view on our Mobile Tour webpage, so keep an eye out for new additions as they travel. Have an idea for a webisode that is taking place in your community? Please submit it to Jason Esler at Jason@greenlivingproject.com.



Meet our 2010 Mobile Team!

Sarah & Michelle have been friends since Leo sank on the Titanic and argyle socks were worn to the knee. Now, with many shared interests and evolved fashion sensibilities, they have joined forces for a new adventure as Green Living Project’s 2010 Mobile Tour Team!

Michelle loves being outside! She has a strong background in education and science with extensive field and laboratory research and is passionate about sharing her love of the natural environment with all age groups. You will often find Michelle sleeping under the stars. She enjoys backpacking, hiking, biking, kayaking, frolicking in the ocean and most recently rock climbing. She also likes to eat stove-popped popcorn more then anything else.

Sarah believes that a better world is possible. With a background in writing & marketing, Fair Trade business, and international development work, she has focused on telling the stories of people who are making a difference – from cucumber workers in North Carolina, to displaced villagers in India and coffee farmers in East Africa. She is passionate about sustainable food, permaculture, yoga and building community. Sarah also has an inexplicable love for hot dogs, but will choose fermented sauerkraut over ketchup any day.
