Note to self: Farmers Market, today, 4 – 7pm.
Take reusable bag. And food scraps.
All the better to close the loop…
Do your grocery shopping, support local growers and makers, and drop off your compost and recycling, all in one hit. (Better still, ride your bike, and get a mega-boost of planet-lovin’ karma points.)
The Zero Waste Station is at the Pemberton Farmers Market every Wednesday from 4 – 7 p.m.
They will accept fruits vegetable, plant, flowers, house plant waste; as well as, bones, meat, fish, dairy, baked goods, coffee grinds, tea bags, paper napkins, and compostable containers. Line your bin with wood chips or sawdust & please remove stickers, elastics and twist ties.

The Wellness Almanac 
I love farmers markets, but here in Ireland I’ve never seen a Zero Waste station or heard of one, we have to create our own in our backgardens.
