Grow Food Not Lawns!
Whether you’re growing for your own family or not, at CCAN we want to help you eat local! The updated link to local community gardens is here. If you have space to grow food at home, please consider Plant(ing) a Row for the Hungry and take the additional produce to the food bank. Or perhaps you enjoy gardening but don’t have the space or time to have a vegetable garden at home. Please consider lending a hand at the Giving Greens charity garden. Find them on Facebook, or contact Lora for more information.
Does the Tri-Cities need a Green & Sustainable Business Directory?
Please take a few moment to answer some questions that will help us determine whether such a directory would be viable. Green & Sustainable Business Directory survey. When we had the E3 Washington Summit in the spring of 2008 one of the ideas that people had was to create a Green Business Directory. Folks wanted to know which local businesses or services were run with people, place and profit in mind. Click here to take survey
