Pretty general, but please circulate to stakeholders in your communities/networks to encourage discussion on these types of projects!

Beau,

Sorry, I did not get back to you. No our Green Corps program did not. We suspended urban garden composting until March. The main deal is gettig class 2 epa certification. We will pick up composting offsite at that time.

We continue to collect compost from staff and cafe to go to Rosbys however.

Beau, do you know if the backing paper from labels can be put in with the rest of my paper recyclables like magazines, etc.? This is one item that is still making up part of my current waste stream.
Thanks.

Hello Beau,
I am a distributor for Nature friendly Products. I would be more than happy to get you any info that you may need. Are you already buying from them?

Hey Beau,
Encouraged to hear the developments taking place in the Cleveland area. We always hear how one person's or business' problem may be solved by another's needs, and this is a great example of how simple parternships can have impressive impacts. Clearly this group has an environmental focus, but there are certainly other important causes that communities face. Hopefully this type of success story will encourage others to be creative as Zero Waste NEO moves forward! Nice job CBG and Cleveland Clinic!

It is too bad they don't make this available year round. These phone books seem to grow like weeds. I was all set to drop mine off two weeks ago and realized it didn't start until June 1.

YES, she is...a good person. :)
Thanks...I'm sure I'll see you at the next event!
