Our verimcomposting has begun thanks to the Worm Farm! They donated all the bedding and worms and owner Marc came and taught K-8 students all about worms (Free assembly too-WOW!).
Our first day of recycling and composting @ lunch was a huge success as well. We only used 3 garbage bins vs. the 4 normally used. Many students helped place veggie and fruit in the compost bin, drink pouches for our Capri Sun drink brigade (terracycle.net), as well as cans and plastic bottles! Thanks to Mrs. Ellerman's two 6th grade students who are helping this week-great job!
