Purge the Garage and
Go Non-Toxic
This is a great time to get rid of household hazardous wastes such as bleach, paints, paint thinners, drain openers, oven cleaners, gasoline, paint thinners, paint, polyurethanes, solvents, tar, pesticides and more.
We have two hazardous waste collections in early May, and two more in June, plus several through late summer and fall. All CVSWMD residents may attend any collectiom. It's $15 a carload, so double up with your neighbors to save gas, time, and money; plus it shortens lines during the events.
Afterwards, try starting anew by using non-toxic cleaning supplies. Click here for a downloadable booklet that explains how to do it.

Join us this Monday, EARTH DAY, for the Hunger Mountain Coop Book Swap! It's a fun, free way to reuse and share. We'll bring our Green Cones and Soil Savers and tons of information about new ways to reuse and recycle. Hunger Mountain Coop will be holding raffles and special sales all day, but the best part will be decluttering your home of the books you don't read, and take home those you will.
