 The Mission of Sarasota Green Connection:

    Sarasota Green Connection (SGC) grows the local green economy by identifying and promoting SGC Approved Businesses online, through media partnerships and at monthly Green World Cafés. When your business is ready to GO GREEN, we are ready to help you, Right Now.

 Accomplishing the Mission with

SGC Approved Businesses:

SGC has a green clearinghouse that approves local businesses that provide people-friendly and planet-friendly choices.
   
SGC Approved Businesses must meet SGC’s criteria of providing green, environmentally preferable products and/or services.  This criteria has been modeled after Co-op America’s guidelines for the Co-op America Business Network (CABN).
 
SGC Approved Businesses appear in the SGC web directory and in the Sarasota Green Pages™, they speak at the Green World Café, and our Sarasota community recognizes their commitment to a future that works for all.
