"The Green Star Mixer was a great place to meet and talk with the leading environmentally conscious businesses of Alaska. The mixer showed me how much great work is going on in our community."

"The Green Star Mixer at Midnight Sun was a total success! I sincerely enjoyed meeting and interacting with Green Star staff and other members. Anchorage really is a well-connected, small town, and it just so happened that a few people I really needed to talk to were there as well! This was a great way for me to leverage my connections and build momentum for green business in Anchorage. Plus, I won a prize. Good work, Green Star! I'll do my best not to miss another one."
