We're open til 9!!

We’re open til 9pm tonight for everyone who has forgotten or who’s body/mind has yet to adjust to Daylight Savings Time :-)

And after reading a recent report about the end of recycling in America, as it’s so cost prohibitive for municipalities to recycle, that large and small, many are sending their carefully sorted recyclables to be incinerated instead of reused, once again I have to be encouraged that it’ll be the small, grassroots local organizations to step in and save the day, when the large corporate systems fail us yet again.

Case in point – each week that you return packaging, containers, egg cartons, glass jars, plastic, paper, and cloth bags, and the like, you help out small family producers in yet another way, save yourself money by saving us on packaging, and help save the environment – not bad, folks, not bad at all.

And occasionally I get an even more unusual surprise, such as this past Tuesday when one of our stellar customers, Sarah, brought in an absolutely adorable tin stamped “Locally Grown Farmer’s Market”, that she saw in a shop and just couldn’t pass up, because where would that fit better than at our events and display table at pick-up?! Wow!!

What a great group of folks – have I mentioned how much I love this community? Thanks so much, Sarah, and keep those recyclables coming!!
