10 Years of Green Philly: Party Photo Recap

Thanks to all who celebrated a decade of Green Philly at 421 N 7th Street! We loved toasting to our readers, friends, sponsors, partners, supporters and friends.

We were happy to announce the SustainPHL 2018 nominees, a few of whom were in the room! We also had a special announcement that we are going kick off a website redesign soon, with much of the funding from a grant thanks to the Merchants Fund. Just think: more searchability, better calendar and events, and awesome features. We’ll be launching a membership soon to give you more longterm benefits and raise the remaining funds instead of a Kickstarter.

A special thank you to Solar States and Arts + Crafts Holdings for their sponsorships, Victory Beer, WeWork and Lunda Cafe for their in-kind donations, and the Energy Co-Op and PennFuture for exhibiting the event. Also, much gratitude to the volunteers from Tuesday night’s event.

Here are a few highlights from the event:
