Compost Project Needs Volunteers

We received the email below from our friends at the Fort Greene Compost Project. Here's more information on how to sign up with this wonderful group:

Composting at the Fort Greene Farmer's Market is an all-volunteer, community supported project -- which means we need your help to keep this neighborhood service going!

Volunteers are needed to mind the drop-off bins, take donations, and help turn the compost at our sites around Brooklyn. If you have never volunteered before, please consider taking a shift. This locally-grown project is the first of its kind, but needs its friends and neighbors to participate in order to keep running every Saturday.

Take a look at our Volunteer Schedule -- we need people to fill shifts in the red, green and blue spaces. If you can help out, email us at fortgreenecompost@gmail.com with the date and shift time and we'll sign ya up or to request further information.

Our pals at Habana Outpost, a local solar powered eatery, are offering folks another incentive to help out with the Fort Greene Compost Project. Those who take a spot on our Volunteer Schedule will not only keep the compost drop-off running as a neighborhood service, but they'll also receive a $10 Gift Certificate to Habana Outpost at 757 Fulton Street. Lunch is on them. Or dinner.
