My garbage bin area was a mess. When I finally couldn't stand it any more, suddenly things fell into place: 1) David needed to thin out his bamboo grove. 2)Roberto agreed to dig in the bamboo poles to create a screen. 3)Javier went up in the hills and found the vine to weave through the bamboo. 4) Liza made up signs that help separate compostables from recyclable bottles and cans, and from basura (garbage) So now, the compostables can be carried over to the community garden, just half a block away, the cans and bottles can be claimed by Javier, and the garbage collectors have less to haul away. It has been quite a satisfying "green" project all around.
This summer and fall, we are going to do some fundraising to hire folks and buy the few materials necessary to create more of these.
