About Us
Edmonton Green Drinks is a welcoming space for engaging conversations, networking, and building connections within the sustainability community. We host monthly events on the second Monday of the month.
Our 2025 season has been a success so far, with all three of our events at the Bentstick Brewery selling out! In February, Kevin Jones, with Prairie Urban Farm, and Mike Johnson, with Solis Architecture, captivated our audience with two compelling presentations.
Join us for our next event and be part of the conversation!
