Upcoming events on Mercer Island!

Hello fellow Islanders. It may be chilly outside, but things are really heating up on the sustainability front.

·         IslandVision has a new Facebook page! We invite you to look us up at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Island-Vision/150088098365545
·         Leap for Green is fast approaching! The big event is on Saturday April 16th at the Mercer Island Community Center. We have some amazing things planned this year. We hope you can join us.
·         It is never too late to start thinking about our beloved Mercer Island Farmer’s Market. Opening day is Sunday June 12th. This year, the market day has been extended an additional hour. Vendors will be open for business at 10 AM. For more info, visit http://www.mifarmersmarket.org/welcome/
·         This coming Monday, February 28th an innovative new Island sustainability group called Transition Initiative Mercer Island (TIMI) is sponsoring a free community event moderated by Callie Ridolfi. Please join TIMI for their second in a series of films with discussion designed to help us create a healthier and more resilient community. This month, TIMI will feature David Brancaccio’s award winning film entitled “Fixing the Future” which highlights many Northwest innovations. Snacks and popcorn will be provided.
