The holidays are over and a new year has begun. Don't let the daily grind completely take away your holiday spirit!

Leading up the beginning of the last winter holiday, we at the Green Office put together our own Green Office Holiday Calendar, with different tips to make your winter holiday evermore green. All the entries to the calendar can be found through links below, and they will provide you with inspiration to do everything from making homemade cookie dough to offer in a mason jar, to giving non-material gifts, turning food waste into wine, and more. These holiday tips were put together with the help of Green Office volunteers and staff.
