If you live in the Boston area, like me, then you should schedule the first-ever Green Mixer into your calendars...I am always excited to see Green Events close to home.

The Green Mixer will bring Boston’s local sustainability-oriented companies and an eco-conscious crowd together to raise awareness of environmentally responsible consumer choices, provide an informal shopping experience, and socialize, have fun and make new friends. Cafeteria Restaurant will serve complimentary appetizers, and, at two cash bars, organic cocktails.

Date: Thursday, March 18, 2010

Time: 5-11pm

Place: Cafeteria, 279 Newbury Street, Boston

Price: FREE
