Gather with Green Drinks Edmonton This Winter!

As the frosty air settles over Edmonton and the New Year begins, Green Drinks is back to warm your spirits and spark fresh ideas for a sustainable future. This January, embrace the “chill of change” and join us at Bent Stick Brewery on Monday, January 13 from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. for an evening of connection and inspiration.

Whether you’re a seasoned sustainability advocate or just dipping your toes into the green scene, this winter gathering offers the perfect blend of cozy conversations and bold ideas to ignite change in the year ahead.

Guess Our Guests to Win Big!

We’re thrilled to welcome two exciting featured guests for January 13! Think you can guess who they are?

We’ll be offering two door prizes and a special season’s pass to Green Drinks for the first person who correctly identifies both guests. Send your guesses to Nathan at [email protected] using these clues:

Clue for Guest #1:
Are you okay with not being a member of a Secret Society working in the shadows to literally grow a greener future? Are you content with short-term thinking hindering long-term responsibility? If so, definitely do not seek out members of the Secret LongTree Society at the next Green Drinks.

Clue for Guest #2:
“I have no secrets – I am an open book about how much I love Edmonton’s local ecology. In another life, I was the Executive Director of a local ENGO, took a fun stint as a wildlife lab research coordinator, and lastly an urban ecological planner. More recently though, I also have what I think is an exciting story of change to share. Can you guess who I am?”

Discover, Share, and Make a Difference

Dive into lively discussions about Edmonton’s green scene and discover new ways to get involved. Whether you’re curious about urban gardening, preserving local harvests, or combating food waste through fruit rescue, this event offers a space to exchange ideas and inspiration.

It’s also a chance to connect with OFRE’s community and explore how you can support food security and sustainability—from joining a harvest team to lending your skills behind the scenes.
