"Suburbia is where the developer bulldozes out the trees, then names the streets after them." - Bill Vaughn    

Armed with this quote and an army of votes she recieved on our Facebook page, Stephanie McGlothlin was the winner of our wordsmith contest. Stephanie heard about Green Source DFW through our Facebook page. She cares about green living because she cares about her planet. She tries to recycle anything and everything she can so is particularly interested in recycling stories. Stephanie strives to help her family be more responsible with the planet and tries to teach them not to waste anything. She recycles and participates in regular neighborhood clean-ups and had a great time at the State Fair the other day with her family. Stay tuned for Green Source DFW's next contest where we provide our fans with an opportunity to let their passions about sustainability be known, win some great prizes, and spread the word about Green Source DFW and other area green associations, businesses, events, and associations!
