Our friends at Fresh From The Farms Juices & Salads on the Southside of Pittsburgh have come up with an excellent solution to reduce waste from their operations: Reusable Mason Jars.
Simply come into the store and ask for a mason jar instead of the traditional plastic bottle that is regularly offered. You can also bring your own, just make sure it is graduated (Smart? Maybe, but graduated means that a container is marked by volume). When you bring your jar into the store, you will receive ten percent off your juice! That is smart! And you will know that you have prevented another plastic container from going into a landfill or from having to be recycled. Remember: its reduce, reuse, repeat, then recycle if necessary.
Visit their store or find them online at www.freshfarmjuices.com and don’t forget to find them on GreenerPittsburgh.com While you’re there, be sure to ask to see the DECO Water Garden that Fresh From The Farms will be using to grow specialty herbs and produce.
