Hey Borderlands P.O.W.W.O.W Community ππ½
Its that wonderful time of year when grapes flow in.
This picture is from 2023, when we processed almost 20 truckloads of grapes in one week! That's about 860,000 lbs. . . and it definitely felt like it. It's hard work but it's definitely worth it! That amount of grapes diverted over 60,000 lbs of methane gasses from our Arizona landfills!
Methane gas is sooooo much more harmful to our planet than carbon dioxide. Something to think about when throwing away food, even food scraps contribute to food waste. Kudos to all of you with backyard chickens. Maybe we should make a post for all of the chicken-steaders in our community and you all can drop off your non-molded scraps to them π€
We've gotten a bunch of GREEN grapes in this week. If you want to help us with these grapes just come out to one of our distribution events this Saturday June 20th. You can make a $17 donation and take some home πππ
