This week, Resource Revival headlined Gorge Green Drinks in its hometown of Mosier, Oregon, where a big crowd gathered to learn about bicycle-related businesses and to learn about alternative transportation issues in the Columbia River Gorge.

Chris Branch, Resource Revival’s production manager, set up a popular key chain and bottle opener station so Green Drinks attendees of all ages could get a feel for what goes on behind the scenes at this cool company.

When they weren’t checking out the Senkai Motors electric, solar-powered bicycle or getting bike maintenance tips from Craig at Mountain View Cycles, folks were enjoying local brews at The Thirsty Woman. Once home to the YWCA, this 450-square-foot bar is a cool re-use project in and of itself. (Fans of building re-use should check out the Building Materials Reuse Association.)

For those who have not checked out one of the hundreds of Green Drinks events around the globe, this informal networking event typically features businesses who are solving environmental and social issues through their business or nonprofit.
