Turn your food scraps into chicken food with Cucumber Hill Farm!
Since Sunday…
We are officially collecting food scraps at Community Day on 5/17, 10-1. We agreed that this will serve as our May meeting, and everyone will cross promote future FSR at TCCC and otherwise. I’m also bringing the SP zero waste station for recycling and compost! Flier to promote summer FSR attached. PLEASE SHARE AT YOUR EVENTS
NYSP2I Letter of Support templates are attached! There is an adapted version for each org (scroll down), but they will need some edits. Feel free to modify to fit your needs and return to me asap THIS WEEK
If anyone else wants to carpool to the compost facility on Saturday, please let me know. We are meeting at the library at 7:30am! Otherwise, the address is 2 Bayview Rd
