  1. #BathME - #HabitatReStores: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!

    "Habitat for Humanity/7 Rivers Maine is a locally governed non-profit organization addressing the housing needs of low income families. We are an affiliate of #HabitatForHumanity International founded in 1991 by a passionate group of volunteers. Our service area includes Lincoln and Sagadahoc Counties and the towns of Brunswick and #HarpswellME.

    Proceeds from the ReStore support our affordable housing programs. In addition to selling affordable home improvement products to the public, the resale of unwanted building materials, appliances, furniture, and other items prevents tons of waste ending up in landfills each year.

    Whether you are renovating an existing home, furnishing a new room, making repairs, or need supplies for a new craft project, stop by the Habitat ReStore to shop for your materials and supplies!"

  2. I composted in the city (Allston-Brighton area -- where we had a small backyard and garden area). It can be done in the cities, and worm-composters can be kept under the sink... But for the faint of heart, many places are now offering #GarbageToGarden services, or collection areas near community gardens...!

    #Massachusetts Ask Your Municipality About a Low-Cost Compost Bin

    "Many towns and cities use MassDEP grant funds to buy compost bins directly from manufacturers, then sell them to residents at a discount.

    "To learn if the community where you live has compost bins for sale, see the List of Massachusetts Compost Bin Distribution Programs in Additional Resources [at the original link].

    "The bins most commonly available are: #EarthMachine (with room for 10 cubic feet of material) and #NewAgeComposter (with a capacity of 24 cubic feet).

    "Both units are easy to assemble, resist rodents, and break down organic materials well. At least half of the plastic that goes into them comes from products that consumers have used and recycled previously."
