Did you know that you can help build Veggie Village’s compost pile? Just visit the WCPC kitchen, and see a container like this one (either on the counter or in one of the silver refrigerators). Bring us your fruit and veggie food scraps (and coffee grounds), and stow in the frig. We will see that it is turned into BLACK GOLD to make the gardens thrive. Just remember: no meats and other food products, just fruits and veggies. Yep!

The Woodlands is a great place to be. One reason is that we have lots of TREES. Did you know that trees are some of our very best friends? Of course they provide shade to cool us. But they also provide habitat and food for birds and other animals. They reduce soil erosion and increase groundwater recharge. Trees absorb carbon dioxide and potentially harmful gasses from the air and release oxygen. One large tree can supply a day’s supply of oxygen for four people (and who knows how many praying mantises). I guess you can call me a tree hugger!

🎶 It’s not easy being green….🎶
That’s what Kermit sings. But he doesn’t know about The Woodlands GREEN. G.R.E.E.N. stands for The Woodlands GrassRoots Environmental Education Network, and it’a an awesome organization, doing tons of good things for our environment. To learn about their great work (and even to join them), just go to www.thewoodlandsgreen.org. It’s easy!

Peezy’s June 2016 Post

Some people think “recycled toilet paper” is a hilarious joke! Ha ha. I, on the other hand, think it is a GREAT IDEA! Not only does the use of “post-consumer” paper products save trees (yay!), but their production requires less toxic chemicals. That’s a double win for all of us. So we can do TWO things: faithfully recycle all of our paper, and purchase new products made from used paper. Sure keeps the trees happy!

I am a Texan, born and raised! So I love to see locally grown fresh fruits and veggies for sale. Made in Texas! Did you know that buying locally grown food helps the environment? It sure does! Local produce does not have to travel hundreds, or even thousands, of miles to your table. Travel takes energy and emits carbon. That is causing problems for my family. So give the Farmer’s Market a try. It is a fun way to discover the bounty of our state!

Peezy’s April 2016 Post

When you live in a forest, you sure do have a lot of leaves. I love to play in them! But when it is time to clean off the driveway and sidewalks, I put my broom to work. Sometimes I see others using their water hose to rinse the dirt and leaves. It works, but sure does use a lot of our most precious resource, WATER! So next time you are doing the yard chores, pick up the broom. Added benefit: great exercise!
