AquaAction and Higher Grounds are excited to launch Sip & Sustain, a recurring coffee chat series that fosters conversation around water innovation, stewardship, fair trade coffee, and local art, connecting people through sustainability, technology, and shared impact.

Our first event will be a St. Patrick’s Day edition, where we’ll explore how going green extends beyond the holiday and into sustainable water and coffee practices. ☘️

Program Highlights:

✅ Welcome & Networking – Grab a coffee, connect, and check out artist-designed mugs.
✅ Water Conservation & Innovation – AquaAction shares insights on water challenges and cutting-edge solutions like Wave Lumina, featuring Vernon LaLone, and Mark & Veronica Dragovich, Founders of Drago.
✅ Fair Trade Coffee Chat – Higher Grounds Coffee dives into the link between water and coffee, breaking down dry vs. wet processing.
✅ Interactive Q&A & Local Action – Share ideas, ask questions, and find ways to support water innovation locally.
✅ Artist Spotlight – Meet our featured artist, Clay Maas, and learn about their sustainable art processes.

Celebrate water, innovation, and community with us while sipping a great cup of coffee! ☕🌎
