Little Girl with Caterpillar at Earth Day FestivalWhat could by more Earth Day-ish than a beautiful little girl playing with a furry caterpillar at an Earth Day festival? Answer: NOTHING!

I ran into a very old friend whom I haven't seen in years at my local Earth Day Festival yesterday here in Nashville, TN, and I was lucky enough to snap this great shot of his daughter.

Check out these other great pics from the Nashville Earth Day Festival...


The Earth Day Festival in Nashville, TN yesterday was incredible! As I mentioned here a few days ago, our festival was chock full of great exhibits, music, speakers, workshops, information, and of course...food.

Homemade Electric Truck
Here's a pic of a homemade electric truck. This truck runs off of 12 batteries 20 batteries sealed and contained in the bed and plugs in to charge through a regular 110v plug in the fuel door.


Earth Day Festival in Nashville, TN
This is a pic of the crowd in front of the main stage. I love Centennial Park and the relaxing vibe it has when everyone is just camped out on blankets with their dogs hanging out beside them.


Plumgood Food
This is a brochure, coupon, and YUMMY crunchy wasabi covered peas from Plumgood Food. This is a Nashville specific online grocery store that delivers healthy groceries, household goods, and prepared food to your doorstep. Do you have something like this in your town?


Dreadlock Dancin' Fool at the Earth Day Festival
Finally, this is the stereotypical person one might picture when they think of "Earth Day". This guy was dressed in what looked to by hemp clothing, had dreadlocks to his butt, and danced continuously in that EXACT spot the entire time my wife and I were at the festival. Rock on man, rock on.

Feel free to see more pictures of the Earth Day festival in Nashville, TN on my flickr photo set of the event.

Another Fun Picture Idea:
Did you get any good shots of an Earth Day festival near you? Email them to me and I'll select a few to feature here on The Fun Times Guide to Living Green.

Thanks for updating the info. I'll have the CVEAA site up shortly. In the meanwhile, I've created a Google Group: http://groups.google.com/group/cveaa

Matt, hey thanks for stopping by! I'm glad you found us here. I really enjoyed learning about your incredible electric truck on Saturday.

I've updated this post to reflect the corrected number of batteries that your vehicle runs off of. I would be glad to update it further with a link to the CVEAA, but the link you provided was dead.

Howdy!

I'm the guy with the electric truck. Thanks for posting the pics! If you could, I'd love a link to the coming Cumberland Valley Electric Auto Association website. Also, the truck uses 20 6V batteries for a total 120V system. You can read more about it at http://austinev.org/evalbum/882

Take care,

Matt Kenigson
