It’s a lot of work launching a new site!  I have posts and comments on my original site I’m trying to move.  This might be a new beginning because I rather spend my time reading about composting.

My nana lives in St. Catherines Ontario, CA and every time I visit I learn more and more about recycling-Canada does a great job at making sure as little as possible goes to landfills.  Nana must have 6 boxes to sort her garbage and somehow they keep it all straight.

The Maplewood Community Garden is going to require that all our debris and rotten veggies be composted.  Looks like I’ll be turning the trash!  If you would like to learn more about composting you can visit this link http://www.epa.gov/osw/conserve/rrr/composting/

Spring is almost here and it’s time for The Girlz to get organized.  Our first town clean up will be March 28th from 10-2 pm.

If you have garbage bags or plastic gloves you would like to donate, please email me at olivia@gogreengirls.com My moms will make arrangements to pick up donations (I’m too young to drive just yet)

If you would like to volunteer, girls between the ages of 10-13 (if you’re younger than 10 you will need your mom or dad to come with you on all clean ups) you can email me at olivia@gogreengirls.com

Green Day was fun but tiresome. Four hours into our clean up we had  collected 7 bags of trash and a bicycle seat!  Thanks to my friends, the girlz, Maplewood is looking just a bit cleaner.

Happy to say, my friends are excited to join me in my first town clean up and the local merchants are showing their support.  Thank you to Village Belle, Anthony Garubo, The St. James’ Gate Publick House, Roman Gourmet and Kings for donating gloves and garbage bags so I don’t need to dip into my piggy bank or ask my moms for money!

We will be around town from 10-2 collecting garbage-you’ll know who we are by our tee’s donated by Village Belle-what a girl wants!

October 10, 2009 celebrates Maplewood’s 3rd annual Green Day fair and the girlz are taking to the streets to pick up the trash.  Live music, how-to-workshops and organic foods will fill the Maplewood Memorial Park.

While local families fill the park, the girlz will be picking up trash to keep it green.
