Autonomous food waste collection in North Court town! This Mobility pilot will test a more sustainable way to manage Detroit food waste. We're so excited to start this program!
Thank you to the West Village Association for putting on this block party for the 2nd year in a row! I had some really great conversations and met so many people interested in joining our scrap collection service.
Short story: The demo today was about feeding the worms. I gave one of the kids a small carrot to feed them as his mom held one of the worms. Instead of putting the carrot in the compost, he put it right next to the worm in her hand. 😂 it was a knee slapper. That picture is towards the end of this reel.
