BPA & Canned Food

Did everyone see this awful report about BPA & canned food -- something to watch out for this winter! 
Tonight there is a celebration for the Environmental Health Strategy Center, the organization working to make policy change around toxins in our food and personal care prodcuts and other stuff.. 

This Thursday we are so glad you will be joining us as a host for our 9th Anniversary Organic Wine and Chocolate Party!


Thursday December 1st 5:30-7:30pm
Rose Contemporary Gallery, Portland

We will be recognizing former executive director of the Maine Women's Policy Center Sarah Standiford with the Second Annual Frank Hatch Environmental Health Leadership Award. As well as honoring one of our founding board members Lael Stegall, and four grassroots leaders who helped win the campaign to phase out the toxic chemical BPA from reusable food and beverage containers in Maine, Jessica Graham, Dana Hernandez, Mary Beth Luce, and Megan Rice.

The event will include a silent auction with a wide variety of fun items, from restaurant gift cards to children's books, that can be great holiday gifts.
