Every year we hold our breath and watch the weather forecasts. And, so far, every year Mother Nature has not disappointed.
This Saturday (Sept. 26) will be the fourth year that Green Sprouts has taken place here in Portland – and it’s shaping up to be the fourth year that they’ve enjoyed beautiful weather for their delightful outdoor celebration of all-things-healthy-and-natural for babies and families. Maybe it’s just a Portland karma thing – because Green Sprouts is a quintessentially Portland event.
Dubbed an “organic baby and family fest,” Green Sprouts is a fun, family-friendly gathering that promotes “the nurturing of life through nature” for both parents and parents-to-be. Parents will find tons of information on raising families in an eco-friendly, community-involved, natural and healthy way. Kids and families will enjoy music, sing-a-longs, clowns, puppet shows and other cool activities.
So, we’ll see you there, right?
