Earth Week
During the week leading up to Earth Day in the Spring, we plan to send out daily tips and tools on ways to “be green”. We are also looking to start a conversation about sustainable ways to shop, gardening tips, recycling, and more!
Raleigh Tree Planting
We are partnering with a local non-profit organization, Trees for the Triangle, to plant trees in the local community. We are looking forward to getting our hands dirty and spending time with one another. Families welcome!
Recycling 101
Recycling seems like an easy way to help the planet, but it can be much more complicated than throwing your items into your bin and bringing it to the curb. We will share our best practices on recycling, and other ways to be more environmentally friendly.
“Learning to be Green through the Abrigo Green Group is going to help me to better understand ways that I can help our planet and nature to continue and be a strong planet for us and our future generations.”
