This is the Last Week of the Challenge.. and We did it!! Over the past 3 months, we have went out of our way, well not too much actually, actually not very much out of our way at all.. we have recycled everything we possibly could, trips to the metal recyclers, actually put some $$ in our pockets, trips to the mall to get ris of the printer cartridges, then we started reusin and refilling the cartridges, less resources used that way.. reused a tone of bags and baggies that would have normally been thrown inot the garbage or recycling box.....
This started out all about Recycling, but as we went on, we realized its about the 3 R's Reuse, Reduce, and Recycle.
The Worm bucket now has at least 6 pounds of worms in it, and 20 pounds of worm castings. The children learned a great lesson with the worms, and how much we waste..
We will continue to practice what we have set forth.
Spring cleanup was difficult, but instead of heading to the dump, we had a garage sale, and then donated the unwanted stuff. also put ads in the local buy and sell..

Thanks to all who followed us through this.
