ANNUAL MEETING and SUMMER GALA – Stirring It Up Green
Saturday, August 9
Don’t miss “Stirring It Up Green,” this year’s Annual Meeting and Summer Gala Dinner. Proceeds will support the Science Center’s education programs and its mission: to advance understanding of ecology by exploring New Hampshire’s natural world.
Gary Hirshberg is the Annual Meeting Keynote Speaker. A true force for change, Gary Hirshberg has been at the forefront of movements working for environmental and social transformation for 30 years. From his early days as an educator and activist to his current position as president and CE-Yo of Stonyfield Farm, the world's largest organic yogurt company, Hirshberg's positive outlook has inspired thousands of people to recognize their ability to make the world a better place. In his latest book, Stirring It Up: How to Make Money and Save the World, Hirshberg calls on individuals to realize their power to effect change in the marketplace—"the power of one"—while proving that environmental commitment makes for a healthier planet and a healthier bottom line. Drawing from his 25 years' experience growing Stonyfield Farm from a 7-cow start-up, as well as the examples of like-minded companies, such as Newman's Own, Patagonia, and Timberland, Hirshberg presents stunning evidence that business not only can save the planet, but is able to simultaneously deliver higher growth and superior profits as well.
Topping off the evening, there will be a live auction and a catered dinner by Great Events Catering of the Common Man Restaurant family.
