Yes, stormy showers eventually chased us inside, but the event was fabulous nonetheless.  Despite the rain, a grand total of 3,781 people attended the show, which included over 70 exhibitors and vendors all focused on some aspect of green living. Some of the highlights included local food, live music from Eco-Elvis and Wack-A-Doo, the Green Marketplace, activities for kids, and the great variety of educational opportunities for sustainable living. ![Quiet Village Landscaping table at Green Homes Festival](https://info.quietvillagelandscaping.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/IMGP1960v2-web-300x291.jpg?width=300&height=291&name=IMGP1960v2-web-300x291.jpg) Our booth got a lot of attention because we were one of only two landscaping companies participating in the event.  It was a great opportunity for us to educate others about the [environmental benefits of permeable paver patios, walkways, and driveways](http://www.quietvillagelandscaping.com/benefits-permeable-pavers/). If you would like more information about installing a permeable paver patio, walkway or driveway in your landscape, give us a call to set up a **free initial consultation**.  And, if you didn’t make it to the Green Homes Festival this year, put it on the calendar for next year!  We’d love to see you there.
