Nassau, Bahamas - At a time when our natural resources are being depleted and non-communicable diseases are on the rise, more and more Bahamians are turning back to Mother Nature for the answers. For years now, Seedling's Place and th e Green Earth Festival have provided an outlet for nature lovers to learn more and access the things they need to improve their lifestyles. This weekend, plans for the 2013 Green Earth Festival were solidified when health food store New Life Natural Vegetation Cell Food Ltd. officially took on the title of lead or presenting sponsor. New Life and Seedling's Place have teamed up to present the 2013 Green Earth Festival - "Living the Way Nature Intended". The festival will be held on Sunday, June 23, 2013 at historic Collin's House from 10am to 6pm. There, scores of vendors will converge on the beautiful, vast grounds of Collins House, with its trees and water attractions, to present a wide array of goods and services that cater to those looking for vegetarian and vegan products, organic products, personal care goods, home decor and essentials, and wholistic approaches to the natural lifestyle. "All of us need to rejuvenate and re-birth ourselves from time to time. It's a law of nature," said Rhonda Wright of Seedling's place, who is elated to have the New Life family on board for this year's festival. "Our quality of life is being negatively impacted as a direct result of our environment, lack of rest, the foods we eat, and the imbalance caused by our inability to manage the stress and pressures of everyday life," she added. "Bahamians will soon be able to make on stop (at the Green Earth Festival) to find many of the local resources needed to support them in restoring themselves and helping Mother Nature." The Green Earth Festival promises to be an important attraction to those who want to make changes in their lifestyle for the first time, as there promises to be a wealth of information and experts will be accessible to help answer questions and make the transition easier. New Life Founder Jamaal Moncur and Partner Julian Smith signed their company on as a presenting sponsor on Saturday, May 4, paving the way for the start of exciting plans to educate and entertain festival-goers. The Green Earth Festival has been steadily growing each year and is known regionally for its success in bringing together all of the entities and professionals in the field of natural health and wellness, organic products and local crafts and goods under one umbrella.
