Upcoming Events

Building community is an integral part of creating this new model together. So while we are here every day to help you reduce and reuse; we also love being able to offer opportunities to connect, learn, and deepen our roots! Here are a list of upcoming events and how to participate & where you'll find us around town:

Sunday March 16th 4:30-6pm: Growing Green, Sustainable Kitchen Gardening with Rachael Carter of Floraculture Gardens: This workshop is always a fan favorite and sells out really early! Stay tuned for tickets. Sign up to get our emails to be the first to know.

Tuesday March 18th 6-8pm: Postcard Writing Campaign for Environmental Voter Project:  We'd love for you to join us for an evening of community and postcard writing! The EVP is a research-based initiative that identifies environmentalists who are unlikely to vote in certain elections, and our role is to send hand-written postcards encouraging them to vote (not how to vote). We will provide postcards, and all of the information (including a mini-training at the start of the session), and postcards stamps as needed. If you are able to provide postage, please select that option. This is a fun & easy way to get involved & enjoy good company. Sign up to help us gauge how many post card stamps we need to provide here. 

Calling all Young Artists/Environmentalists!
