Star Eco Station Happenings

Last weekend in Culver City, California, Covenant Green™ eco-apparel participated in a Children's Earth Day 2009 event, proceeds of which benefitted Star Eco Station. Star Eco Station is an internationally award-winning non-profit environmental education and exotic wildlife rescue center, dedicated to the mission of Preservation Through Education. Working in collaboration with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and other government and environmental organizations, Star Eco Station provides a last chance for illegal or abandoned at-risk exotic wildlife, as well as environmental education outreach programs in over 40 California school districts:


During Star Eco Station's Children's Earth Day 2009 event, children's acts from Disney and Nickolodeon performed. It was incredible to see such talent on kids so young! All the more reason why we all need to live green, because we are only borrowing the planet and its resources from future generations:


The Covenant Green™ booth, almost set-up, while talking to my new friend and booth neighbor Katie from Tree People:


Now available, Covenant Green's Small Carbon Footprint™ children and infant's apparel (for inquiries, pls contact info@covenantgreen.com):


One of the animals housed and taken care of in Star Eco Station's facility is a bobcat that was found during a raid. There was movement in a suitcase, and law enforcement personnel thought it was a child. This bobcat was rescued and given to the Star Eco Station:


This bird had a psychological disease of having the need to pluck his chest feathers (ergo the two feathers on his front), similar or akin to the human condition trichotillomania, the disorder of chronic hair-plucking. Poor bird!


This white one was a hoot, performing a plumed dance of bobbing its body up-and-down while repeatedly rapping "Wa-ka-choo, wa-ka-choo, wa-ka-choo!"


Trying to control my heart which wanted to pop out of my chest, and my screaming banshee that I held inside my throat, I managed to "put on" a *snake* around my shoulders! Watch out Britney Spears! :)


The snake I "wore" as it lunged towards the camera...


... and its beautiful coat glistening against the light, rich in color and texture. NO snakeskin shoes and bags, please!!!


New eco-conscious friends who also mustered up the courage to put on the snake - Jeff and Teddy:


At the end of the day, satisfied customers loved their Covenant Green™ apparel, including uber-fabulous Magda (my aunt's namesake), who sported her new 100% certified organic cotton "I [heart] Green" slouch tee right then and there!

Thanks to all who came and see you at the next show!
