We are so blessed to have such dedicated environmental stewards who understand the value of educating the public about how to properly dispose of their waste while working towards a zero waste goal. RIGHT ON MARIN!!!
Zero Waste Education Volunteers:
Agricultural Institute of Marin is thrilled to be launching a new recycling and composting program at the Thursday and Sunday morning Marin Farmers Markets. We need a dedicated team of volunteers to help educate farmers market shoppers about how to use the new system correctly and to encourage recycling. Volunteers will manage three “recycling” stations at the Thursday and Sunday markets from 9:30am to 1:30pm. Volunteers are to explain the various bins and what goes in each and help the customers when needed get their waste/recyclables and compostables into the correct bin.
