Hey everyone, we are looking for more people to join our group to divert food waste in Bellingham. Send us a message if you're interested in local sustainability and would like to contribute your time and energy to donating food to those in need during this cold winter. Commitments involve Sunday morning recoveries at the two Bellingham co-op locations which require reliable transportation and the ability to lift up to 30 pounds.

Happy Monday Everyone!
This Wednesday, November 18th, at 6pm Mark Peterson with Sustainable Connections will be giving a virtual presentation to the WWU Surfrider Club, and we would love for any interested FRN members to attend as well! Sustainable Connections is a local organization focused on the promotion of a thriving community through innovation, collaboration, and action. They work toward this mission through programs addressing issues such as zero waste, energy efficiency, smart growth, food accessibility, and thinking local. In his presentation, Mark plans to discuss these efforts, inform students on new projects underway, and address ways in which we can make an impact within our community. There will also be plenty of time for questions, so please feel free to check out the Sustainable Connections website if you’d like to explore further: https://sustainableconnections.org
Everyone is welcome to attend this virtual meeting, so please spread the word! And if you have any additional questions, don’t hesitate to reach out. Here is the Zoom login info:

We're excited to announce that as of today, we are officially a WWU club! Recoveries will still proceed as usual, but we're also hoping to meet once a quarter or so to talk about recruitment, structure, and to all get to meet each other :) We're hoping to have our first meeting soon, so if you would be interested in attending, please fill out this Doodle poll with *all* your available times. If none of these times work, let us know and we look into alternatives. 🙂
