Ecomaniacs Grand Green Opening

Join us as the Illinois Green Business Association (IGBA) presents EcoManiacs with our certificate as a certified green business!  Learn about the process of becoming certified green, and then our official grand opening ribbon cutting!  Reception and refreshments to follow!

Since opening our doors on December 1, 2012, we have gone to great lengths to source
only vendors who practice sustainability, have an environmentally friendly
supply-chain from their site to our store, and who believe that taking care of
the planet and the people on it is of utmost importance. The IGBA has worked with us prior to opening our business and throughout the past several months to ensure that we have incorporated these most important green practices into our business. It is our honor to
have the LGBA, IGBA, and our amazing eco-friendly vendors join in our green celebration.  If you like Urban Junket, Blue Q, SimbiHaiti, Green Toys, and more of our products, you’re going to love our giveaways!

We will also have some very special guests waiting to meet you! Come meet Megan Owdom-Weitz, designer of the unique and fun clothing line Megan Lee Designs, from 4:00 – 5:30 pm on Friday! Charlotte Clary, one of the creators of the “good for you” candy Ice Chips and seen on the TV show Shark Tank, will be in-store throughout the weekend!
