Zero Waste Lincoln is a sub group of Mothers Out Front. We formed during the pandemic at the request of town management and the DPW. Lincoln’s beloved Swap Shed had been closed for safety reasons and residents and Mothers Out Front Lincoln were eager to have it be reopened. After much brainstorming, we decided to create Zero Waste Lincoln. So the Swap Shed and the Book Room have been successfully open again for the past 18 months with the support of the DPW and so many wonderful town volunteers. Thousands of items have found new homes with Lincoln families or have been delivered to organizations who will reuse them. But Zero Waste Lincoln also works on the purchasing side of our trash problem. Donelans have become an important ally in making sure that when we shop, there are sustainable options. Jason Deveau, the manager, is happy to find non plastic options for products. Here are a few of the new more sustainable products you can find at Donelans ….Laundry detergent in cardboard –3 brands available ….Shampoo and conditioner bars –Brixy brand ….100% recycled toilet tissue and paper towels–2 brands available ….compostable single use plates/utensils/cold cups and straws ….compostable trash bags ….100% recycled aluminum foil …Juices–large selection of flavors all in glass bottles …paper bags for school lunches ….Single us water bottles in aluminum ….and of course, choose fruits and vegetables that are in season, grown locally and not packaged in plastic. So check out Donelans…challenge your children to search the aisles for items not in plastic! The consumer choices we make send strong messages about the products we want to see on the shelves. Let us know of other products you would like to see in our local stores [email protected] If you are curious about Zero Waste Practices, we would welcome your ideas, energy and talents, so please join us.
