London, Ontario Green Drinks
GreenDrinks London provides a dynamic social environment where people from community, non-profit, business and government connect over the common goal of sustainability. Our gatherings are a unique blend of socializing, networking and learning. Each month we host a different speaker who explores relevant local issues and delivers practical ideas for making greener lifestyle choices.
We invite you to come out to meet new friends, develop ideas, form business partnerships, and perhaps have a few moments of serendipity.
WHEN: We meet the 3rd Tuesday of each month from 7pm onwards.
WHERE: Please see monthly event listings on ecoLIVING London
COST: FREE (unless otherwise stated - i.e. field trips).
