IMPORTANT UPDATE on 2012 Buffalo Niagara Green Expo

We on the BNGE steering committee need to make you aware of some important updates regarding this year’s event. After much consideration and reflection, we have decided to postpone the 2012 Buffalo Niagara Green Expo indefinitely. After three successful years promoting the local green/sustainable community and bringing green organizations together, we have decided that our mission may be best served by modifying our future strategy.
