Mark your green calendars

I've got a few announcements for you about events going on in the area.

This, by way of Piedmont Environmental Alliance:

April 30: Another Green Drinks Gathering will take place from 5:30-7:30 p.m. at Foothills Brewery on 4th Street in downtown Winston-Salem. This is a networking opportunity for those interested in green living/working and environmental issues. To see well-developed and bustling groups in action, check out LA Green Drinks or Asheville Green Drinks.

May 10: Ten Thousand Villages in Greensboro will celebrate its first annual World Fair Trade Day Children's Festival from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. It is designed to educate children about fair trade and ecology, and to celebrate global culture and the diversity of the Triad. There will be live music, and dance performances, storytelling, costumes, games, and other activities.

Guilford Solar Communities has an announcement on its blog about a May 10 session on installing solar hot water at your home.

Also, T.S. Designs in Burlington is hosting the Sustainable North Carolina Café on May 8 from 5:30-8 p.m. The company is showcasing its new sustainable initiatives along with food and wine from local vendors. RSVP with Eric Henry at eric@tsdesigns.com if you are interested.

Don't forget to register for the faith and environment forum at the Center for the Environment at Catawba College in Salisbury on May 29-31. Registration fees go up on May 7. I'll actually be giving a workshop on that Friday. Hope to see you there!
