The Cape is approaching a solid waste crisis. Learn from three experts addressing this issue — and how every Cape household can be part of the solution. Sponsored by the Green Team of the Mashpee Congregational Church, the program is free and open to all. Learn how to reduce household waste and properly dispose of hazardous materials, new ways to recycle, and easy methods of home composing — even in a small space. Presenters will be Catherine Laurent, Director, Mashpee Dept. of Public Works; Kari Parcell with the MA Department of Environmental Protection, and Calliope Chute, Hazardous Materials Environmental Specialist, Barnstable Cooperative Extension. Free handouts, samples and a drawing for a household composting bin. Mashpee Congregation Church is located at 259 Shore Road in the Popponesett Market Place, Mashpee.
