How can we do better?


 During our Lenten study after church today, several suggestions were made that may be a way for you to start a new habit during the 40 days of Lent.

  • Another suggestion is using laundry detergent sheets instead of liquid detergent that comes in bit plastic bottles. There are several different brands available. Kathryn Renick let me know that Nikole (Ethan's mom) is opening a shop in Berthoud. It will be located at 434 Mountain Ave and grand opening will be March 26th.They will carry the detergent sheets and lots of other alternatives to replace plastic and non-environmental friendly products. Here is a link that describes a lot of the products her store will carry. the source zero
  • While checking my links to see if they work, an ad popped up for a countertop composter. Fred Bunning told us how he collected things for his compost pile. This looks pretty neat. It’s quite pricey, but I never thought it was a thing. Lomi | Kitchen Composter | Pela Earth
  • Thank you to Susan Bonsall who provided this link that includes '52 Ways to invest in our Planet' and Toolkits that will be useful. Our Green Team will be checking into them. Earthday.org

    I noticed a truck with a trailer stop at the curb by a house close to mine. On the side of the trailer it said Common Good Compost. They offer a compost service, picking up your scraps once a week and then bring you a 50 lb bag of compost once a year. There is a link below if you want to check it out.
