Eco Friends

Rooted in Community

Eco Friends is a community for Topekans and neighbors who are passionate about conservation, ecology, environmental stewardship, and regenerative agriculture.

Eco Friends creates space for connection, learning, and collaboration through monthly happy hour events. Each gathering features a guest speaker—an individual or organization making a positive impact—who shares their work and inspires meaningful conversations, or a relevant documentary or topic for discussion.

Full Circle is honored to host the Eco Friends community at the CRC Care Center at Stout, 2303 SW College Ave., in the media room, the second Tuesday of every month. People begin gathering around 6 p.m., and the presentation starts at 6:30 p.m. Please feel encouraged to bring your own supper or snack, or treat yourself to Full Circle's make-your-own-trail-mix bar.
