Recycle Bin Wrap Up

Collection at Farmington Farmers Mkt. 8/25/12

Thanks to YOU, Farmington Public School kids were welcomed back to school with your green recycle bins!  We recovered over 500 bins and the district was able to distribute to all elementary, upper elementary and middle schools creating consistency and ease in the recycling process.

“For years it has been a goal of the FPS Green Team to provide same type recycling containers for our classrooms.  Now, both cities have helped us achieve this goal and at no cost to the District.  Recycling programs in both cities and FPS mirror each other which provide us with another element of consistency.  Having our students see the green bin that they have used for years in their homes now in their classrooms will help simplify and promote better recycling in FPS.”  -Jim Pearse, FPS Supervisor and Energy Manager

Thanks to your support, Peace, Love & Planet’s (PLP) efforts are making an impact.  The implementation of new bins reflects a move in a positive direction for our community as a whole.  Recommend a PLP assembly to your school principal to help enhance student understanding and environmental appreciation today!  Thank you.
