GreenLiving: Autumn Edition

Green Tips for the Fall


As the weather turns colder and the days become shorter, try to practice some particular, fall-friendly, green tips perfect for the season:
  1. Compost: This time of year is wonderful for collecting compost (also known as "organic matter") because there is an abundance of grass and leaves around before natural elements like snow and rain cover everything and there are also should be plenty of food left over from holidays.  Remember to unload your compost often- find compost drop-off sites online to act as a guide!
  2. Local Focus: Instead of buying foods full of preservatives, try to buy food from local farmers markets.  Not only will you be supporting local business, but you can rest assured you are getting fresh produce and food!
  3. Leftovers: During this time of year, you can expect holiday meals and dinners.  Don't throw any of the food away that is not eaten!  Instead, save the leftovers and eat those for subsequent meals.  There is no excuse for food waste!
We hope everyone has a happy and healthy autumn season!
