Each year for the last three years, GreenTown has held an annual fundraiser in October. Year after year it has surpassed our expectations. Besides being a high energy, fun party with environmentally savvy people the catering is superb and wine abundant! What more could you ask for?
This year, the event will be held on Oct. 22, 5-8pm at a lovely private home in Los Altos. The Farm to Table dinner is our only major fundraiser. Which is why we’re hoping we can break all records for attendance. Your participation at the event helps sustain and grow GreenTown’s environmental impact in our community.
