Going Live and Being Local

This is definitely a moment I've been working towards for many months. The Essen website has arrived!

I cannot thank the many Lancasterians who have provided me unending support, encouragement, honest feedback and inspiration over the last couple of years (has it been thaaaat long?!). Essen has been and will continue to be about our community.

Again, thank you.

Speaking of being locally inspired, I had a wonderful introductory conversation today with Karen Sattler. Karen and Jen Lehman are co-directors of the Susquehanna Sustainable Business Network (SSBN). As many of you are aware, the Green Pages is in the process of becoming a membership directory for members of the SSBN. The SSBN is open to all locally-owned, independent businesses who support their mission: to grow a local economy that promotes social, environmental and financial sustainability in Lancaster and York counties.
