Making a Difference: Double Helix Wine Bar & Boutique
Pop the cork and toast to good wine and global initiatives! Double Helix Wine Bar & Boutique in The Shoppes at The Palazzo just teamed up with ReCork, a nonprofit cork recycling organization out of Napa Valley, and SOLE shoes to make an impact in the lives of many and the health of our planet.
Recycled cork has been used to make tiles, building insulation, automotive gaskets, craft materials and more. In partnership with ReCork, SOLE shoes has found yet another use for recycled stoppers–comfy footwear. The program is linked to a global initiative to save and protect the over 6 million acres of cork forests that dot the Mediterranean Basin. In addition to the cork recycling, ReCork and SOLE have pledged to sponsor the planting of a minimum of four thousand cork oaks in Portugal.
You can help Double Helix support the cause by dropping off your collection of corks at their special drop box. As incentive, Double Helix is offering special treats for contributions. Drop off 10 corks and get $2 off any drink at the bar. Drop off 25 corks and your second drink is free. For 50+ corks, you’ll receive 25% off any bottle of wine in the store or bar. It’s a win, win and wine for all. Visit www.recork.org or www.doublehelixwine.com for more info.
