The Palisadian-Post has partnered with locally founded environmental organization Resilient Palisades to deliver a “green tip” to our readers in each newspaper. This edition’s tip was written by Sara Marti, social media lead for Resilient Palisades.
Hey, neighbors: Resilient Palisades is thrilled to announce two events happening soon in our community.
First up, mark your calendars for Pali Veg Fest on Sunday, October 13, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Palisades Village Green. This is an opportunity for plant-based enthusiasts to gather and celebrate all things vegan.
California Native Plant Society will be joining us for a native plant sale, with experts on hand to answer your questions. Fall is an ideal time to plant native species.
But that’s not all: On Sunday, October 20, Palisades Charter High School will host its very first flea market, which is open to the community. Swing by the lower campus parking lot from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. for a fun day with the community.
Resilient Palisades will have a booth set up with the goal of raising funds for a variety of projects aimed at making our community greener and brighter.
One of our highlights at this event is the Pali High Environmental Advocacy Awards scholarship program, designed to support Pali High students who want to pursue environmental studies.
In addition to the Vegan Solutions team and their Pali Veg Fest, our Zero Waste team is working hard to promote sustainable practices with their Choose to Reuse initiatives. You may have seen them periodically handing out free reusable produce bags at Pacific Palisades Farmers Market, or perhaps you’ve attended an event that opted for our metal cutlery and cups.
Our Water Sages are expanding local water harvesting efforts and remain committed to planting more native plant species.
Our Clean Air team continues its mission to eliminate gas leaf blowers, while our Solar team is busy securing the lowest rates on solar panels through our group purchasing program.
Plus, we’re encouraging our neighbors to embrace composting. It’s all about creating a healthier environment for everyone.
So, don’t forget to join us at both events. Visit our booth at the flea market to find cool stuff, learn more about our initiatives and help support our work. Can’t wait to see you there.
