When the State Fair gives you lemons… please don’t give them to us.

At our recycling facility, the “end of the line” is where anything that doesn’t belong in the recycling ends up after recyclables have been sorted. And after the State Fair, apparently that means A LOT of lemons.

Enjoy the lemonade. Just remember to remove the lemon before you recycle your cup.

Cheese curds. Corn dogs. Crop art. Butter sculptures. And… 6 million pounds of waste? 😬

Nearly two million people visit the Minnesota State Fair each year, which makes it a pretty incredible place to show what zero waste could look like at scale.

Imagine reusable cups and plates, more food rescue and composting, and less single-use stuff becoming waste after just a few minutes.

The Great Minnesota Get-Together already celebrates what makes Minnesota great. Why not make it a place where we can experience a less wasteful future, too?

Plastic Free July is a great reminder that our everyday choices matter.

But we can't shop our way out of the plastic crisis.

We can bring reusable bags and water bottles. We can skip unnecessary single-use plastics whenever we have the option. But we can't choose how products are packaged or stop companies from producing more plastic.

That's why individual actions need to be matched by policies that reduce waste at the source.

In our latest blog post, we reflect on Plastic Free July and share why Minnesota—and the nation—need policies that reduce unnecessary single-use plastics, expand reuse, hold producers accountable, and create a future with less waste.

Our friendly binstructor is back! In honor of Plastic Free July, we're sharing a few common plastic items that don't belong in your recycling bin - including plastic bags, black plastic, and small single-use foodware. This Plastic Free July, try swapping single-use plastics for reusable bags, food containers, and utensils whenever you can.

The Washington Post highlighted how we turn mixed recyclables into clean materials for new products—and answered one of the questions we hear most often: Do you need to wash out your peanut butter jar?

Recycling works. And we can make it work even better by recycling more, investing in reuse, designing packaging for recyclability, and building recycling systems that are accessible to everyone.
