Waste Reduction

You are here: Home / Waste Reduction

Have you ever heard of the three R’s? Reduce, reuse, and recycle! We like to refer to the five R’s: refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, and rot. We have seen a lot of benefits from applying the five R’s in our family, and as you learn and apply the ideas from these posts, we know you will, too.

If you are new to the idea of waste reduction, this blog post offers a great starting point!
