Sweater Driving

Recently, we partnered with the Oakwood Elementary School community on a Holiday sweater drive.  Green 3 is purchasing all of the sweaters Oakwood collected, with 100% of the proceeds going directly back to the Oakwood PTO.  As you most likely know, Green 3 will take those sweaters and turn them into scarves, hand warmers and even skirts.  What you may not know is that Oakwood is the environmental education charter school in our city, making their school a perfect fit for this type of initiative.

After the sweater drive wraps up we are inviting the Oakwood families to our company store for a special event.  We want to show them how are sweaters are made and what our company is about.  We love our community and are always looking for ways to connect our mission with others.  If you or someone you know would be interested in a similar event please contact Carla@green3apparel.com.

Unfortunately, this title got me thinking about this classic Bill Cosby show from the 90′s, and I say unfortunately because now that theme song will be on repeat in my head for the rest of the day!    But back to the post, here is a different kind of picture page.  An image stroll through our company store.

Scarves, Hats and Mittens

Rabbits, foxes and raccoons, oh my! Our faux stoles are quickly becoming a season must! With a fun and friendly animal design these adorable knit scarves, hats and mittens make a statement. I especially love the floppy and relaxed style of the hats and that these items give off a not-so-serious vibe!

I can just imagine wearing this bunny hat down the ski hill this winter while giving new meaning to the term “snow bunny”!
