Magical visit to the ACRES farm at the Warren Tech campus yesterday. Incredible organic farm, stewarded by Josh Olsen, the hardest working human we know, and tended to by the students of the Warren Tech culinary program. What these folks are doing for sustainable food & sustainable agriculture in Denver will span generations. We’re so humbled by the partnership that has already grown between us, and excited to share what’s on the horizon! 🌱💕♻️🌞🌾 #sustainablefood #sustainablesoil #sustainableag #regenerativeag #sustainabledenver #sustainablefuture #saveoursoil #foodmatters #farmtotable #urbanfarmers

Who has been your biggest influence? ✳️I have a deep admiration and love for Martin Luther King, Jr., whose devotion to racial equality, social justice, and unity across difference, is unrivaled in our history and so needed in our time. If only we could all be even one-one-thousandth as devoted to the greater good. . What feeling embodies you the most? ✳️ Depth. . What characteristic was most critical for your success? ✳️ Scrappiness. :) And a zeal for forging connections. . At what age did you feel like you arrived? ✳️ I most certainly have not arrived. But at 30, I began arriving. . When you’re not working on your project, what activity do you do the most? ✳️ These days it's all about nurturing Bear, my dog, and squeezing tiny adventures out of fleeting free moments. . When you’re not working on your project, what activity do you enjoy the most? ✳️ Creating, crafting, dreaming of the next project. And camping. . Are you a mother? Who are your children? ✳️ Bear Cub has wriggled his way into being my one and only. I've been told I perpetuate his inner puppy, which I count as a giant win.
The bin on the left is a paying customer. The bag on the right is a free rider. Our routes and our business are built around a paying customer base, and free ridership puts that at risk. So, Dear Free Riders: Our small business exists to make Denver a more sustainable place to live, and we do it with incredibly small margins. Your piggybacking on your neighbors’ paid service does nothing but harm the effort. While we wish composting were free and ubiquitous in the city of Denver, unfortunately it is not - and our compost pickup program aims to make it as accessible and affordable as possible for as many people as possible. Please join our program officially, and get to know our little movement - instead of jeopardizing it. Thank you!! 🙏🏽🤞🏼💚♻️🙈🚴🏽‍♀️😬👨🏽‍🌾
