Sorry - The Tapping Out volunteer day is full.Thanks for your interest

Kick off the maple sugaring season by helping us tap approximately 200 maple trees around Weston. Bring your family out for this fun event! Please arrive on time for a tapping demonstration and a group assignment. Teams will be sent to various locations across town to tap trees together. Due to limited supplies and trees, maximum attendance is 50 people and an RSVP is required. Also, if possible, please bring a cordless power drill and 5/16" or 7/16" drill bits.

After the event, you are welcome to join Land's Sake staff for hot beverages and soup in our office at the Melone House.  Land's Sake will provide the drinks and soup, but please bring baked goods to share if you can!

Weston Talks Trash
Start: 7:00 pm
End: 9:00 pm

Featuring Bob Hoffman, Weston Dir. of Public Works

The Weston Climate Group is hosting a presentation and discussion about stuff, where it comes from and where it goes when we think that we are done with it. Although it is easy for most of us to just "throw stuff away," it is amazing to see what actually happens once you realize that there is no such thing as "away."

The evening will start with a showing of the short, very entertaining film The Story of Stuff, which describes the impacts and implications of our production and consumption patterns. Following the movie, Bob Hoffman, Director of Weston's Department of Public Works, will describe the current profile of Weston's waste and how it is processed. He will discuss the breakdown of the amounts and types of waste we generate as a community, the role of recycling, and outline some of the economics involved in managing the town's trash disposal. There will be time of discussion at the end.

Come to the Weston Public Library to learn about your waste stream in a whole new way. For more information, contact Rudy Ruggles or see www.westonclimategroup.org.
