Join us for the Inaugural Green Week, April 18-25!

At Green Philly, we have a mission to make sustainability easy, accessible and inexpensive. It’s time that we highlight Philadelphia’s sustainability scene for an entire week!

Join us in a week-long celebration of events to promote sustainability in the Philadelphia area.

Green Philly will be hosting the inaugural Green Week from April 18th through April 25th to celebrate organizations that are hosting events which are promoting and educating sustainability to the community.

Participating Green Week Events:

Thank you to Single Prop Rum for sponsoring Green Week!

Hopping among the islands of the Caribbean in a small, single prop airplane, we discovered and fell in love with a local tradition: slicing open fresh coconuts and pouring in locally made rum. Leaving behind the white sand beaches and tropical sunsets, we headed home, bringing this tradition with us. Single Prop tells the story of our adventure—perfect combination of premium Caribbean rum and pure coconut water; for wherever your journey takes you.

In a sunny fifth-floor studio in South Philly’s Bok building, brother and sister duo Nicole and Jordan Haddad produce distinctive clothing with quality fabrics. Their “slow fashion” approach — extensive fabric research and testing, and careful design and fitting — opposes the human and environmental exploitation of industrial clothing production. All fabrics are hand-printed in their studio or machine knitted by local mills. All garments are machine washable.
