The mill

The Mill joined our composting collection program to keep their coffee grounds out of the landfill. They also invest in compostable coffee cups!

Southwood Lutheran Church:

Caring for this beautiful world God created is important to our church. The more Styrofoam coffee cups we went through, the more we kept asking ourselves, “Isn’t there a better way?” Our research paid off after a call to Uribe Refuse! Their Waste to Energy program with a dedicated staff member, Melissa, offered an economical solution with expert guidance and support to make it easy and successful.

Our Green Team staff and volunteers were available in between services for several weeks

Cafe supplies were replaced with all compostable products.

Signage was created to offer easy-to-follow directions.

Tables showing actual examples of compostables, recyclables, and trash items were set up.

The bottom line—a congregation that fully embraced this endeavor and very little financial impact, which was our biggest surprise!"

Clean Slate Food Co.:

Clean Slate Food Co. provides several hundred customers each week with their meal delivery services and utilize compostable packaging in efforts to operate sustainably and cut down on waste. Customers have the option to return the containers, which Clean Slate then collects for commercial composting at no extra charge. Each week, over two full-size 96-gallon waste bins are filled with 100% plant fiber compostable packaging that would otherwise go to the landfill.
