This Week's Tip & Trivia Question

Green Tip of the Week:
Buy and Sell Used Whenever Possible!

Mrs. Green’s comment: With college dorms being emptied out and college students coming back home for the summer, there’s lots of “stuff” being moved around. Please don’t throw anything away in the landfills! They are full. Use craigslist, use freecycle, ebay, take things to Goodwill. These are all great places to buy things you need as well – just take the extra step!
