Deb Habib, from Seeds of Solidarity, is actively seeking volunteers for the compost/recycle crew. With your help, the festival will once again produce only 3 bags of trash for 8,000 people! Transforming what would be trash into fertile soil for gardens! If you are interested in being on the compost/recycle crew, read on and then contact Deb Habib directly deb@seedsofsolidarity.org
The task you do as a compost/recycle volunteer is to be at one of six compost/recycle stations on the festival field, and simply help support and advise people on what to put where (compostable, recyclable, or trash)- you get to enjoy the festival sights and sounds from your station/perch too! Deb provides full instructions prior to the festival so you know exactly what to do.
