SUSTAINABLE ENERGY SUMMIT AND ANNUAL CO-OP POWER MEMBER MEETING

 

Please save Saturday, June 19th for this year's Sustainable Energy Summit.  We're planning a low key, fun family event this year with lots of hands-on activities and real conversation about what we've learned this year about sustainability and justice and what we hope to learn in the coming year - a real People's Summit.  The Summit will be on the shore of the Connecticut River in Holyoke at the Nuestras Raices 30 acre farm.  We've ordered beautiful weather, by the way, to go along with the beautiful location! The annual meeting will likely be that weekend too. Please stay tuned! Contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it to volunteer!
