Philly Compost and the Sierra Club

Philly Compost gets national press! The Night Kitchen Bakery, Earth Bread and Brewery and The Wine Thief are proud customers!

"Three days a week, M. Lee Meinicke, cofounder of Philly Compost, takes her truck on a circuit of Philadelphia restaurants, caterers, and markets, filling 20-gallon bins with plate scrapings, aging produce, chicken bones, food-stained napkins, and other discarded organic matter. The waste will be served up as dinner to Meinicke's stable of red wigglers and night crawlers, emerging on the other end as compost that she will sell for $15 per four-gallon bin. She turns straw into gold, and participating businesses help fight climate change: "What hooks them is the global-warming issue," she says."

Valentines Day treats

Christmas Tree Recycling Day!

The Mt. Airy Business Association in partnership with GRINCH and the Allens Lane Art Center is sponsoring a Christmas Tree Recycling Day.

When: Sunday, January 10, 2010 from 10 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Where: Allens Lane Art Center -- 601 Allens Lane, Philadelphia 19119

We are asking a $5.00 donation to help cover our costs.

Trees will be chipped into a pile which will then be available in the Spring as free mulch!

Why? Because it's the right thing to do. Trees are just like any other trash that gets sent to landfills and becomes pollution. By chipping the trees and re-using the mulch, you are helping to save our precious planet.

Please contact Kim Miller, executive director of the Mt. Airy Business Association at 215-242-0777 or kim@mtairybiz.com if you have any questions or if you would like to volunteer to help that day.
