Last Saturday, October 26, the Black Sustainability team participated in the 15th annual Original Collard Greens Cultural Festival 🥬 During this event our team hosted the 7th Annual Sustainability Pavilion where we shared about our Waste & Green Lifestyle, Ag., as well as Energy Industry House Boards! We also had information about shoe waste and our upcoming Shoe Deconstruction Training! Attendees came by to learn about shoe waste, alternative energy, non-toxic beauty products and adopting a sustainable life! Gratitude to our partners for holding it down! S/O to Ujamaa Seeds for sharing information about agricultural education and collard biodiversity! They fully represented at the Sustainability Pavilion with immense agricultural education on collard greens and the importance of biodiversity! AND big ups to Electric Black Futures, another BSI partner who joined the Sustainability Pavilion to share information on e-mobility and ways to access clean energy. They also provided five electric vehicles for attendees to explore and ride-along! Catch us back outside next year for year 16 of the festival and year 8 of our Sustainability Pavilion! See you all soon ✨ #BlackSustainability
