Hello from Lisa + Andrew... Happy February! It has been an amazing year so far! Big changes, big leaps forward - and big diversions. Congratulations to the Growing City Community - together we've diverted 705.1lbs / 320.5 kgs of organic waste from going to our landfill - since October 2009! You guys have really done us proud :D
It's Olympic Time - Hooray!
February is an exciting month for Vancouver and Growing City. Our streets, sidewalks and slopes are (almost) ready to welcome the world! What we lack in snow, we make up for in spirit! We look forward to experiencing this special time with you. Go Canada! Click here to see how Teck is turning e-waste into Olympic gold!
