Happy Earth Week! For Earth Week this year, CSWD staff wanted to deep dive into food waste prevention. Food placed in the landfill is one of the major causes of greenhouse gases AND is a waste of a valuable resource! Let us expand your food waste prevention knowledge.
What fun things do we have planned? We’ve got a fantastic lineup this week with a compost workshop (WIN a Soil Saver), an Organics Recycling Facility – Home of Green Mountain Compost tour, Facebook and Instagram trivia games, and a University of Vermont Eco Fair event for UVM students!
