This is a post to show appreciation for an absolute legend in the recycling & waste reduction world in CT ๐Ÿซถ๐ŸŒŽ

Kim Oโ€™Rourke is today retiring from her role as the Recycling Coordinator for the City of Middletown, where she has worked for several decades. If you live anywhere in the Middletown area, or are involved in recycling or waste reduction initiatives in the state, then you likely know who Iโ€™m talking about.

Kim has been instrumental in many of Middletownโ€™s leading-edge zero waste initiatives, and her passion for the cause has made a huge difference across the board. Weโ€™ve been so lucky to work closely with her, and sheโ€™s been one of our top refill customers since day 1 (literally at one of our early events, months before opening our first brick and mortar location) โค๏ธ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒŽ

Weโ€™re so grateful for all the education she has spread far and wide to groups of all ages, and we know sheโ€™s going to continue making a big difference in her future endeavors. Weโ€™ll miss having our friend just down the street, but luckily sheโ€™ll still need to get her refills ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ™Œ

Our first Repair Cafe of the year is here!!!

So bring us your tired gear, your poor devices, your huddled masses of clothes yearning to be repaired ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ› ๐Ÿชก

~~~
What is a Repair Cafe?
A free community gathering focused on repairing items and learning skills.

Reboot Eco Repair Cafes are focused on giving items a longer life and teaching folks skills and habits to help keep all their items in good working condition. When items are repaired and maintained well, it keeps them out of the landfill and prevents the need for new replacement items. Thus saving money and the environment!

Our skilled repair experts are happy to take a look at your items and perform any small repairs during the event for free*. If any repairs require more time or more specific tools, they will recommend a course of action which may be as easy and convenient as them taking it home to repair and return to you when complete. More complicated repairs may incur a fee, but always cost less than a replacement.

Our repair experts are able to assist with the following repairs, among others:
- Small household appliances (vacuums, blenders, lamps, fans, etc.)
- Clothing & Gear (rips/holes, broken zippers, frayed edges, torn pockets/straps, etc.)
- We are always up for a new challenge so if you can carry it, bring it to our next event and let us take a look.

*Payment is required for any parts needed to complete the repair.

Moisture is the name of the game on these bitter cold winter days ๐Ÿฅถ โ„๏ธ

Oil, serum, balm, butter, conditioner - pick your pleasure, as long as itโ€™s not loaded with toxins ๐Ÿšซ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

And donโ€™t try to fend for yourself out there in the Wild West of bath and beauty products, where itโ€™s hard to know what to believe or trust, and where trial and error just leave you jaded, broke and drowning in containers & packaging ๐Ÿ˜ตโ€๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ™…๐Ÿฝโ€โ™€๏ธ

We use these products ourselves and we know the names and faces of the women behind the brands. And in case itโ€™s not obvious, we do love a good moisturizer!! We can share our personal experience and the feedback of our customers. Real live peopleโ€™s feedback, not some paid for review on whatever site the algorithms send you to. ๐Ÿ™„

Pictured are the following:
๐Ÿ’งThe oh so popular conditioner bar and hair & body oil for shiny, nourished tresses without the fly-aways
๐ŸŒฑ body butter, great for all over skin moisture with amazing scents
๐Ÿ’ง facial serum and nourish balm, great separate but even better used together in the winter months
๐ŸŒฑ tallow skin fluff, scrumptious fatty skincare for all (even your pets!)
๐Ÿ’ง multipurpose balm, great for keeping with you on the go
๐ŸŒฑ skin recovery balm, for the rough spots, cracks and extra dry areas
๐Ÿ’ง ranger balm, great for so many things and my favorite for my extra dry hands
๐ŸŒฑ face balm, lighter but still nourishing, great for travel

Not pictured (because I just had to snap a quick picture between customers and couldnโ€™t get them to fit in right, and if it doesnโ€™t happen quick itโ€™ll never happen ๐Ÿ˜ฌ) but definitely worth mentioning are the following:

๐Ÿ’ง mango pressed serum, heavenly deep moisture for the face
๐ŸŒฑ a shaving balm for nurturing freshly shaven skin
๐Ÿ’ง the refillable face and body lotion in our refill station

And honestly Iโ€™m sure thereโ€™s a few more that I missed - we have quite the selection ๐Ÿคฉ

So donโ€™t delay, swing by the shop, itโ€™s cozy in here ๐Ÿฅฐ๐ŸŒฑ๐ŸŒŽ

Community is now more important than ever ๐Ÿ’š

Gather with us this Thursday to organize the Swap Studio. Itโ€™s soothing, satisfying, and youโ€™ll be with like minded people.

Feeling useless? This is perfect - small, easy, mindless tasks.

Feeling hopeless? Trust me, being in a free community space is a great reminder that our individual actions make a difference.

Feeling frustrated? For some this can be a welcome distraction, for others a productive outlet.

Feeling alone? Join us, weโ€™re all in this together โค๏ธ

Stress management is the name of the game this week ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿค™๐Ÿฝ

Go take a walk. Preferably with a friend. Even better, make it a productive walking meeting on a gorgeous day. Thatโ€™s what and I did this morning between voting, meetings, and opening the shop. Highly recommend!

You can also nab yourself some of these precious ornaments that double as room fresheners - just drop a couple of drops of a soothing essential oil blend on them and hang in your car, office, living room, bed room - heck, from your neck if need be! ๐Ÿ˜œ

And then thereโ€™s always the dryer balls - donโ€™t these adorable faces just make you feel more calm already?!?
Did you notice the new designs we just added? ๐Ÿ˜ป๐Ÿฆ‹

For later in the week, weโ€™ll have a great opportunity to disconnect on Thursday from 4-8 PM, when we gather in the Swap Studio for our first social organizing gathering - come help us sort donations and reorganize racks ๐Ÿ™Œ

And donโ€™t forget to breathe โ˜€๏ธโค๏ธ
