Hosted by: Friends of Travers Park and the Jackson Heights Green Coalition at Terraza Cafe in Jackson Heights.

Friends of Travers Park is a committee of the Jackson Heights Beautification Group. Friends started out cleaning up broken bottles and removing graffiti at the park; then planting shrubs and perennials. More recently, we’ve run Family Fun Day, back-to-school book-give-aways, Storytime in the Park, and Summer Sundays in the Park, a multi-cultural performance series. Recently we’ve begun to work on open space and other environmental issues, including creation of a Green Agenda for Jackson Heights.

Jackson Heights Green Coalition is a community group dedicated to creating sustainable public spaces in our neighborhood. Our goal is to create and/or expand parks, playgrounds and other green spaces in our area through outreach, education, and leadership.

What’s Queens Green Drinks again?

Very simply, it’s an informal social gathering/networking event for folks that are environmentally minded. Come and we’ll introduce you to some of the other like minded folks in and around Queens. If we’re lucky (which is likely) we’ll cross pollinate make new friends, catch up with old ones, and maybe even sprout an idea or three.

Since this is a new little experiment for our borough, please help get the word out and tell your friends about it! Heck, why don’t you bring them?

Just to let you know, we’ll have a different host each month selecting the venue of their choice. If you are interested in helping to get the word out, if you have suggestions for hosts, or if you’d like to donate your skills in building a website please let me know at queensgreendrinks(at)gmail(dot)com.
