    Germantown’s HNI Collective lands in Billie Eilish’s sustainable fashion guide

    In October, Germantown’s own Itohan Asemota got word that her business, HNI Collective, was listed in Billie Eilish’s Sustainable Fashion Guide for the Philly tour stop — a curated list of secondhand shops, sustainable brands, and repair spaces. She told GIH it was a reminder that “you never really know who’s watching,” and used the moment to talk about why keeping clothes longer is part of fighting the climate crisis.

    Resourceful workshops and clinics underway in Germantown

    As temps drop, Germantown organizations are lining up winter-readiness help, from weatherization briefings and utility clinics to a SNAP Defense Training that will walk folks through new work requirements and exemptions. Even though LIHEAP is pushed to Dec. 3 because of the shutdown, neighbors can still get paperwork done early and connect to other support this month.
