Words of Wisdom:

Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier. ~Mother Teresa

 

From the Green Team:

 

Greener in the Kitchen: 

Stop buying fruits and vegetables that have been imported from another country to reduce gas emissions and energy consumption caused by moving produce from one location to another.

Buy real food. If you can’t trace its origin, it shouldn’t go into your body (ahem, IMHO) and it’s surely not doing our environment any good.

Quit relying on takeout food. If you succumb, find a restaurant that uses compostable packaging and say no to plastic straws. Or better yet, bring your own containers for them to fill.

Learn to cook some really simple, really fast meals so you won’t be tempted by fast food.

Find a local butcher that uses butcher paper instead of buying your meat cuts on Styrofoam.
