put Terry's Berries on the greenmap!


or any other sustainability oriented place. Greenmap making March 15th, 2-5pm at the Puyallup city council chambers.

This week I tried to capture the ducks loving the spring rain, the pic ended up being kind of post-duck-euphoria, but they do enjoy the puddles.

And here's a pic from the archives. Who is that harvesting quackgrass and what exactly is that hairstyle? the just-cut-out the dreadlocks look?

Say "buh-bye" to Plastic Bags!

Sustainability Please!

Bring a basket, box, grocery bags, cooler, laundry basket- whatever!

While we do provide plastic bags, we really encourage you bring reusable bags. Why? Well, a little-known island continent of floating toxic plastic garbage (80% plastic), TWICE the size of Texas, is growing in the Pacific Ocean between California and Hawaii. Now there’s a reason to give up plastic forever!

Check out this share member's pick-up box! The front has a pocket to store reusable bags, and bright design was the creative ingenuity of his daughter!
