EnAct: Steps to Greener Living

01/15/2019

It has been a LONG time since I posted anything. The EnAct: Steps to Greener Living program has served our community well and is now retired. I deeply appreciate all the people and organizations that supported, participated, and were willing to engage in green living. THANK YOU!

As a way of saying thank you I would like to offer EnAct books that give 1000s of suggested actions for greener living. Please let me know if you want one.

Sincerely, Leah Samson
