The fifth annual Tampa Bay Living Green Expo was held this weekend at the Coliseum in Downtown Saint Petersburg.  The 2010 edition featured over 75 exhibitors, activities for the whole family, and new ways to go green.  There were lots of giveaways, as well free plants and information on recycling.  Attendees learned how to start a worm farm, identify invasive species plants, save energy at home, and even how to recycle lumber that would otherwise be turned into mulch.
