Not sure how the food booths are serving their food or if there is enough time - but I work for an online specialty food company, MarxFoods.com, and we are the exclusive Web store for Palm Leaf Dinnerware. Plates made from palm leaves that are biodegradable are an excellent alternative to paper or plastic plates and are great for anything Earth Day related! Your celebration sounds amazing - wish I could be there!
Thanks for the note.
Your message was both commercial and topical, but the topical won me over.
Sounds like an interesting product.
