Since this is an Atlanta-based blog, I'm attempting to keep you in the know by collecting all the Green happenings around town. Here are some ways you can get out into the community and get started making a more beautiful city today!
Thursday, June 12th
East Atlanta Village Farmer's Market - Taking place every Thursday through November 27th, from 4 p.m. to Dusk, the EAV Farmer's Market will feature local produce and dairy, arts & crafts, and often special events like Chef Tastings and entertainment. Tonight Ryan Steward from The Glenwood will share cheese and cilantro from local farms. Find the event in the parking lot of the Village Ace Hardware, 1231 Glenwood Avenue SE, Atlanta, GA 30316. Get Transit Directions.
Tap Into Trees - A tornado "ReLeaf" benefit for Trees Atlanta, hosted by Social 360, at the Standard Bar on Memorial Drive. Matt Simpson, the "Beer Sommolier" from ratebeer.com will host. Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. 327 Memorial Dr., Atlanta, GA 30312. Get Transit Directions.
"Gas-tronomical -- How Do We Survive the New Gas Crisis?" Salon -- The Bound to Be Read Books monthly salon takes place every second Thursday of the month and consists of topics picked by last month's salon attendees. This week they will discuss a topic that's on everybody's mind. Be here to kvetch, compare notes, find an audience for your conspiracy theory, or even if you just feel like getting your Gertrude Stein on. 481-B Flat Shoals Avenue SE, Atlanta, GA 30316.

Remember, if you have any Green or Eco-Friendly event news, drop me a note so I can post it here.
