The fun side of eco-awareness ... making serious connectionsWednesday, November 105:30 - 7:30 p.m.
Head downtown and join us next week at Federal House, right at Market Space in Annapolis! We're hosting our second annual Green Marketplace ... and holding it well in advance to kick off your good Green holiday shopping! Let's salute and support our local merchants whose products are good for the Earth and good for our local economy!
Federal House is coming through with a lot of good Green practices, one of which is recycling, not only glass, paper and cans, but also oyster shells (through the Oyster Recovery Partnership) and cooking grease. We'll tell you all about it.
This evening we'll be focusing on recycling too ... hoping that we can unite as a force to help encourage more Annapolitans and their businesses to do their part. And, did you know, November 15th is America Recycles Day, so our theme is very timely!
For those of you familiar with Federal House ... we're taking over the downstairs bar and also have the private upstairs space for their yummy appetizers and local vendors. Here's our line-up so far:
