đŸ§” **Beyond the Label: Layers (Fabrics Edition)** Understanding the stories, materials and certifications behind the products we use every day. As Melbourne settles into winter and we’re all reaching for a few extra layers, we’ll explore the fabrics that make up our wardrobes — and how they influence comfort, quality, and the choices we make when shopping. **Join Eco Impact Tribe** for a relaxed afternoon of coffee, conversation, and connection. We’ll compare different fabric samples, share simple insights, and open up a casual discussion in a welcoming, informal setting. No lectures, no guilt, and no fashion expertise required. Just curious minds, good coffee, and great conversation. 📍Meeting Point: **Three Bags Full, 60 Nicholson St, Abbotsford VIC 3067** ☕ Plan for the afternoon * **1:15 PM** — Arrival, coffee & casual introductions * **1:45 PM** — We gently dive into the conversation and fabric exploration * **2:45 PM** — Wrap up and finish (cafĂ© close / table release) To support the venue, please buy a coffee and/or snack during the event. \* By joining this event, you participate voluntarily and are responsible for your own wellbeing. A few photos may be taken for community sharing. If you’d prefer not to be included, just let the host know at the start. **Whether you’re interested in sustainability, conscious living, or simply learning something new, you’re warmly welcome.**
