Salad Party Update.
For the last two weeks I had the privilege of taking all the students into a garden. We picked lettuce and made it into a salad. The children also got some edible flowers, kale, green onions, cilantro, nasturtium leaves, arugula, and magic dressing in the salad. I got plenty of complements on the salad and several children discovered they love salads (you welcome). We also had a surprise in a garden. Monarch caterpillars decided to stop by for a visit. At one point we had 20. So we should have butterflies coming in soon.
Thank you to all wonderful volunteers that came to help out.Don’t Trash Your Old Clothes: 1/Donate 2/Upcycle 3/Recycle in some local retail stores!
Don’t Trash Your Old Clothes: 1/Donate 2/Upcycle 3/Recycle in some local retail stores!
From an environmental standpoint, the fashion industry is wearing a very bad look. Globally, 40 million tons of textiles are sent to landfills or incinerated every year and the fashion industry is responsible for over 8% of total greenhouse gas emissions. There are a lot of ways to make your wardrobe sustainable, but eventually, you’ll have to dispose of some old clothes. Fortunately, retailers are starting to make it easier to close the loop by offering clothing take-back and even resale programs.
Some stores are particular about brand or condition but some programs accept anything, any condition (like H&M, Zara or Carter’s); you may even get a store credit when bringing your old clothes to them. Use this list from Earth 911 to help you find the best option for you!
