This IS the way we can win in this transformation from slavery to actual collective liberation.”

Green Drinks is a monthly social event hosted by the folks who create Orion magazine for people like you and I interested in everything from environmental education to local agriculture, the arts, green business & design, and the ways all of these intersect. We usually have 50 or so folks from around the area stop by.

Please come with your business card, posters to share for an upcoming event in the area, etc, to share with your peers.

As always there will be deliciously free snacks courtesy of our lovely/handsome Route 7 hosts, and gloriously free copies of the current issue of Orion magazine for your enjoyment.

So grab a friend or two and bring them down to share what you’re working on (green or not) and to meet others active in your community.

Please forward this on to your friends & share with your social media contacts…the more the merrier!
