Celebrate Earth Day early at Habana Outpost’s Earth Day Expo hosted by Habana Works this Saturday (that’s tomorrow people, in case you keep thinking today is Thursday). A Child Grows in Brooklyn will be there loving Mama Gia, holding babies and generally channeling our own Goddess. Where is a bonfire to dance around when you need it? I guess we can settle for great cocktails and grilled corn. Check out some of the awesome things happening at Habana Outpost, and take your eco-parenting to the next level.
