Greendrinks' second event of 2009 held at Habitat For Humanity of Greater Portland's ReStore on February 10th. A huge turnout of locals saw firsthand the plethora of building supplies available for sale to the general public. Think of it as a mini-Home Depot, but better, since all the money made supports Habitat's home building program. You can find everything from doorknobs to windows, lamps to refrigerators, sinks to cabinets, and toilets to paint. As explained on their website, "The ReStore supplies overstocked, discontinued, new and used building materials donated by manufacturers, stores, contractors and individuals. These donated items are sold to the public or used in construction of Habitat homes. All revenue from sales support our building program."
Other sponsors at the Portland Greendrinks event included Peak Organic Brewing, Sebago Brewing, and Maine Mead Works.
