Green Fair at Work

Yesterday was the 2nd Annual Green Fair at my work place.  We have lots of events at my office, but the Green Fair is one of my favorite.  My work promotes Green living throughout the 14 floors of office space.  We recycle paper, plastic, and compost left over food in our cafeteria.  Our cleaning crew uses green cleaning products.  We have a green team to identify and develop additional green options throughout our building.  Recently we had a Farmers Market in our cafeteria during the afternoon break hour.

Greenability Magazine was at last years Green Fair.  After learning about Greenability and previewing a couple of issues, I started to subscribe to this fabulous magazine!   I always look forward to the next issue.  The stories inside are about individuals and businesses sharing their green lifestyles.  It is a great resource for green products, how to become more green and events throughout Kansas City.  Today I had a wonderful visited with Mary Lynn Coulson and Janie Chen with Greenability.

I told Mary Lynn about my green projects I have posted on this blog.  I repurpose T-shirts for my grandson as in 4th of July T and although I didn't mention in the Dinosaur blog, I repurposed an old T-shirt to make the shirt of this dinosaur T.  In this blog I have lots of grandson pictures but I also display a Tennis T-shirt that was repurposed.  I have made toys from left over scraps of fabric and have also made napkins out of older button down Abercrombie shirts.  It has been fun to finally find a purpose for  clothing I felt was too good to give away.  I am constantly on the look out for additional ideas.  My best ideas come from my daughter-in-law.  

Our Green Fair

We had window vendors, home auditors, car dealers, foam insulation specialist, solar products, and Ripple Glass, plus many other Green businesses.   

After visiting the Green Fair, I decided I needed to add Green Links on my blog.  So will start with a couple but will continue to add more.
