The Green Sanctuary Team serves as a resource for UUSG as it continues its commitment to being a green presence.
Over the years, they have sold compact fluorescent light bulbs, reusable shopping bags, native plants, rain barrels and more, putting tools in the congregation’s hands for living more lightly in the world we all share.
