Spring Cleaning for You and Mother Earth

Tuesday is Earth Day, but community groups are celebrating today at the Cabrillo Marine Aquarium and elsewhere across LA and the planet.

Henry’s Market on Western Avenue is continuing the celebration into next week with opportunities to care for yourself and your environment.

The store will distribute special reusable grocery bags on Monday and Tuesday, April 21 and 22. Henry’s was allocated 1,000 bags to distribute to customers in honor of Earth Month.





The bags were specially designed by the California Grocers Association and the LA city Department of Public Works.

LA mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and industry representatives will hold a City Hall press conference Monday to announce the reusable bag campaign.

Clean your environment on the inside, too, at a free lecture on “spring nutritional cleansing.” The lecture takes place at Henry’s at 6 p.m. on Wednesday, April 23 and will discuss foods, supplements and practices to keep your body internally clean. For more information, call (310) 831-7836.
