Hi Visitor, 

 

We had a great time this week at the August Morning Blend hosted by Mackenzie Inc. We want to thank the team at Mackenzie Inc. and all of the attendees who came out to learn about their sustainability initiatives and network with other green businesses. The tour of their beautifully designed office was a small bonus at the end that we truly appreciated! We hope to see you at next month's Morning Blend!
