Linden Hills EcoParents Mtg - Mon, Nov 17; "Greening Your Holidays"

Just a reminder that the next meeting of Linden Hills EcoParents is Monday, November 17, from 6:30-8:30 pm at Linden Hills United Church of Christ (4200 Upton Ave S, Mpls), in Fellowship Hall on the lower level. Enter at the door marked 'office' located on 42nd Street.

Lisa MacMartin from Wonderment will present ideas about purchasing for kids in an eco-conscious manner, plus we will have a sampling of green gift ideas and waste reduction ideas from Linden Hills Natural Home. We will learn how to wrap gifts using furoshikis (Japanese cloth) or any other cloth, as well as how to make gift boxes from paper! If you have a square scarf or other piece of fabric, please bring it to practice various 'wrapping' techniques!

We will also outline the EcoParents Rebate Program at tomorrow's meeting, as well as distribute the kitchen scrap buckets generously donated to us from Hennepin County.

Hope to see you on Monday!!
