Living Local That is the Wild Orchid's tag line and their commitment Wow, with Labor Day over let's enjoy Indian Summer! Join us at The Wild Orchid to experience their commitment to sustainable living, not only in their menus but in their authentic lifestyles.
We are looking forward to the terrific appetizers with which Wild Orchid will surprise us, including meat from Roseda Black Angus Farm in Monkton, Md., via My Butcher & More in Annapolis.
Rumor has it that the awesome bar staff at Level is going to join us for a drink competition. Let's taste the Wild Orchid Martini and see if they qualify!
In addition to providing fabulous appetizers and organic wines, The Wild Orchid will offer Green Drinkers a dinner special.
Dinner Special for Green Drinkers, Sept. 14 only Reservations Required
Come taste the abundance of the Chesapeake region, experience a truly local price fixe menu for $26 per guest. They are likely to have Wahoo or Flounder on the menu, both caught off the coast of Ocean City. They will have antibiotic-free, grassfed beef from Roseda Farms--close to Gunpowder State Park--and Eastern Shore free range chicken from outside Salisbury.
While the Wild Orchid builds its new website, call 410 268-7656 for reservations. Questions? Send an email to info@thewildorchidcafe.com.
Severn Savings Green Roof Tour
Severn Savings Bank will provide Green Drinkers with a tour of its eco-friendly Green Roof that captures and absorbs runoff water that would typically challenge our infrastructures and pollute our waterways. Read more. And as a special treat, Certified Green Roof Expert and local landscaper Matt Ciminelli will be on hand to tell us all about Green Roofs in General.
And ... did you hear? This weekend we're Greening the 43rd Annual Maryland Seafood Festival! We still need a few green greeting volunteers and have some last minute sponsorships opportunities available. Come check us out (more info in sidebar)

Help Green the Maryland Seafood Festival September 10 -12
Sponsorships and Volunteers Still Welcome!
As many of you have heard I jumped on board helping with the sponsorships at this year's 43rd Annual Maryland Seafood Festival! Yet, I had an ulterior motive ... to finally make the festival eco-friendly! Well, it's happening in this 11th hour. We have set up a green event sponsorship website, greeneventsmanagement.com, to help us do as much as we can -- eco stations with recycling, grease to biofuel and even pilot composting -- a big step. Thanks for any last minute sponsors and volunteers! We already have a few Green Drinkers onboard! I'll bribe you with a pass -- and it should be fun educating the crowd on all we're doing. Come help set the new green pace for festivals in our area! Contact me if you can help.Lynne
