Do It Green Minnesota - September Workshops

Calling all Twin Cities readers!  I'm going to be doing a workshop next week for Do It Green Minnesota.  It's about green parenting and it's happening over at the Twin Cities Green store on Hennepin Avenue.  I'd love to see you there! 

(P.S.  Wanna go to a clothing swap?  Do It Green is hosting one over at Birch on Sept. 24th. See below for more details...I'm going to try to go!)

ECO MOM AND DAD: Parenting goes green
Thurs, Sept 18: 6-8pm
Do It Green! Resource Center at Twin Cities Green
2405 Hennepin Ave. S., Mpls

Kids may not want to eat anything green, but they can learn to do it green from their most important teachers: their parents. Join us for a panel discussion as three local eco moms share their tips on how to raise an environmentally friendly family. Mindful Momma Blogger Micaela Preston, Do It Green! Magazine Editor Sara Grochowski and Owner of Twin Cities Green Tina North will share their challenges and successes in green parenting. Following the discussion, stay for craft time as we make toys from recycled materials.

ECO FASHION and CLOTHING SWAP
Wed, Sept 24: 6-8pm
Birch Clothing
2309 W 50th St, Mpls

“Eco Fashion” is of the few trends you actually should latch onto for more than one season. For this workshop, clean out your closet, your family members’ closets, and your friends’ closets and bring those gently used clothes and accessories to our clothing swap. You get to be rid of your old stuff and go home with a few new-to-you pieces for your wardrobe! Ellen Gavin, owner of Birch Clothing, will be available to discuss sustainable and reclaimed fabrics, organic clothing, local designers and more.
Your $5 suggested donation goes toward supporting Do It Green! Minnesota, a volunteer-run nonprofit organization.
