MCCD's natural resources manager to speak at Green Drinks
Guest Brad Woodson of the McHenry County Conservation District will speak at the next McHenry County Green Drinks meeting from 5 to 7 p.m. Wednesday, May 3, at Duke's Alehouse & Kitchen, 110 N. Main St. in Crystal Lake.
The district's natural resources manager will speak about the agricultural programs at the district that use best management practices and encourage the protection of the flora, fauna and soils of the publicly held lands.
The meetings, held on the first Wednesday of each month, gather environmentally minded people to network and talk about "greening" the future. Everyone is welcome to attend.
Also, information about upcoming eco-events and green products and services is made available. Non-alcoholic and alcoholic drinks are available, plus a featured "green drink" selected by Chef Zak.
Additional parking is available at the train station. To be added to the Green Drinks email list, send a note to GreenDrinksMC@gmail.com or "like" the group at www.facebook.com/GreenDrinksMcHenryCounty.
