This Saturday, Oct. 22nd, stop on down to LA’s Original Farmer’s Market, where LG Electronics and Good Housekeeping will be visiting as their final stop on the Greener Living Tour, a five-city farmers’ market circuit designed to educate consumers on how to live healthier and greener, and more cost-effectively – with the help of fresh foods and efficient products, like LG’s new super-capacity French-door refrigerator, which recently earned the coveted Good Housekeeping Seal.
This event at the Original Farmer’s Market, located at 6333 W 3rd St. in West Hollywood, will happen from 11am – 4pm. There will be raw food demonstrations by Chef Blythe Metz, an author, TV personality, and esteemed raw food chef.
“Now more than ever, our readers are relying on us to help them cut through the clutter of claims to find products that really perform as promised, and one of the many ways we do this is with the Good Housekeeping Seal,” said Miriam Arond, Director of the Good Housekeeping Research Institute. “As a Good Housekeeping Seal-holder, LG is an ideal partner for the Greener Living Tour because we’re confident in the quality products they provide for consumers.”
With LG’s New Refridgerator, It’s All About Capacity and Compressor Technology
The centerpiece of the Greener Living Tour is LG’s new super-capacity French-door refrigerator. With about 20 percent more capacity than the standard 36-inch width refrigerator – enough for 51 gallons of milk or numerous bushels of fresh produce – consumers can store more market-fresh fruits and veggies, and spend less time driving to the store. This ENERGY STAR-qualified refrigerator exceeds government energy standards by 20 percent, offers industry-leading capacity and a host of features to help keep foods fresher, longer. To maximize energy savings, LG redesigned the refrigerator’s compressor. Typically, the compressor is either running at full power or off completely; however, LG’s Linear Compressor can vary output depending on need, and has fewer moving parts, which creates less friction and saves more energy. This technology leads to fewer temperature swings, which means consumers use less energy and spend less money. The new compressor also drives LG’s new Smart Cooling System, which is designed to provide superior humidity and temperature to help extend the life of fresh foods.
The Experts Show You How to Help Change the World
Chef Metz will perform live demonstrations using locally grown seasonal produce stored in LG’s new energy-efficient, French-door refrigerator. This refrigerator has 31 cubic foot capacity, which means tremendous storage that can easily accommodate plenty of local fresh foods for a variety of tasty treats during the demonstration, focusing on the theme of “Rawmazing Recipes.”
Visitors to the event will have the opportunity to join LG in taking the “Change the World, Start with ENERGY STAR®” pledge, and consider behavioral changes that will save them money and help save the planet at the same time. This national campaign, sponsored by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, encourages Americans to join millions of others in taking small, individual steps that make a big difference in addressing climate change. Those that take the pledge will also be entered in a drawing for the chance to win the LG French-door refrigerator valued at $2,999. One winner will be chosen at the end of the tour.
“This tour is a great opportunity to educate consumers on how our refrigerators’ super-large capacity, freshness features and outstanding efficiency reduce energy consumption and help the masses live greener without sacrificing the convenience they’ve come to expect from the most important appliance in the kitchen,” said Peter Reiner, senior vice president, marketing, LG Electronics USA. “We’re happy to be working with Good Housekeeping, who we feel is a perfect partner as its consumer-education track record speaks for itself.”
