Join us for this session to learn about strategies aimed at assisting schools in effectively engaging K-12 students, our future leaders, in composting initiatives. This session will help parents, teachers, school administrators, and community leaders alike, on their journey to enhance awareness on ways we all can all assist with diverting organic waste from landfills through composting. It will also provide tips on how to mitigate contamination and establish an efficient, cost-effective organics management program in schools and the community. Hear from Sara Covatta with Lunch Rescue & Recycle, Katelyn Kiskstra with EcoStrategies, and Christine Lakatos with Hayes Elementary (part of Livonia Public Schools) to learn details on strategies to reduce waste and promote behavioral change within K-12 cafeterias.
