We're Rolling!
After three years in development, the Compost Cooperative has started diverting waste away from the landfill. One of our first customers is ICE CREAM ALLEY at 221 Main Street in Greenfield. This newly opened business features fabulously tasty and locally made ice cream and uses all compostable items. They also understand the importance of building a collaborative economy.
We wish them the best!
More great news: we're launching a
Kickstarter Campaign in July
to raise funds for a used truck--and so much more.
In our next newsletter we'll be sending a link to the campaign.
Here's what we need to take the next steps in our business:
- 5-gallon buckets
- 32- and 64-gallon totes on wheels
- bicycles and carts
- used truck
- lift gate
- insurance
- safety gear
- stickers, magnets, and t-shirts with our beautiful logo
Join us in developing a just and sustainable economic infrastructure
for people coming out of jail.
Many people and businesses have helped us get to this point, especially Amy Donovan and The People's Pint. This month we are also hugely grateful to Matt at CHERRY RUM AUTO in Greenfield for loaning us a truck so we can haul for our commercial clients while we raise funds to purchase our own truck.
We're now scheduling audits free of charge for potential commercial customers. This entails analyzing and hauling compostables for 1-2 weeks and coming up with an individualized estimate for each customer. Please get in touch if you or someone you know might be interested in our services!
