My fetish with sorting trash has come home to roost. I have volunteered to help at the Harvest Festival at the Berkshire Botanical Garden on October 1st and 2nd.. About 5,000 people will attend this 2 day event that has about 115 vendors that provide food, hay rides, crafts, fresh produce, a haunted house and much more.
My job is to lead the "Green Team". That is a nice title for trash management and our goal is to have no trash for the landfill. On site trash should be compostable or recyclable. The food vendors will be bringing compostable plates and silverware. I now know a lot more about composting, recycling and managing large events.
