Partnership: Gardening Kits & Burlap Bags
Together both Fresh Start Healthy Meals and Recycle Bud recycled and repurposed 200 pinto bean cans and burlap bags. Since Fresh Start Healthy Meals is a high volume school food producer they use up a lot of resources to produce delicious meals everyday. One of those high volume items are pinto beans that come in a 1 gallon steel container. These containers are not accepted at most recycling centers because of the materials it is made of. And, since they normally throw away these cans, we decided to take 200 of the cans to clean and repurpose them as gardening kits.
Recycle Bud collected, washed, and filled 200 of these pinto bean cans and distributed them to different school sites across California. This 2020 project donated gardening kits to:
LA Arts High School
Alliance College Ready #8
Alliance Patti & Peter
Alliance Simon Tech
Alliance Leichtman-Levine
and more!
Our efforts to promote sustainability and recycling has just started. We are expanding our efforts and programs to help put systems in place to redirect “trash” for school sites and business alike. See how you can join in on reducing waste in our world.
