    Was so excited to discover that Life Unplastic Gainesville has a boomerang jar program for people to borrow AND I can donate unused jars to them!

      Thanks, Susan! It’s been working well so far, people grab them for all sorts of things like  laundry detergent, dish soap, etc. 👍👍👍

    Does anyone know of a good place that accepts glass jars donations, perhaps Life Unplastic? Would love to see them put into good use to buys things in bulk

      Life Unplastic has a boomerang jar cart, where you can bring jars for others to use!

    Going to a yelp event and bringing my own plates, utensils, and cup! It’ll be a great conversation starter and maybe bring some sustainability ideas to strangers :)

    Thinking of making my own version of paper towels and paper napkins with fabric during the break

    Waiting for my pineapple to ripen so I can start juicing, but collecting used glass bottles/jars to use when I juice :)

    Decided to cancel my magazines subscriptions today! Not only I save money and the environment, but I still get access to it via my local library’s online services

    Finally found my old water bottle with the UF Cupanion sticker on it to help me keep track of my water consumption and how many bottles I’m saving! Hoping to win some GNVUnplastic goodies from UF Sustainability :)
