Our mission is to facilitate connections and cultivate collaborations between local creatives, corporations, and community entities who share our drive for resource stewardship. In other words, we're here to help others turn local waste into valuable community resources.

Vision:
Wouldn't it be incredible if there was no such thing as trash? We want to see a world in which everyone and everything is valued, simply by nature of existing. While we don't pretend to have all the answers, we hope our work will get us one step closer to that reality.
Our Values
Our Values
Community
Community
If we had to pick one (and thankfully we don't), community would be our highest value. It's in our name! Everything we do is in service of connection and bringing people together, because we know that each person's quality of life is directly tied to their connection to self and others.
Curiosity
Curiosity
Let the questions fly! We aspire to be as curious as we once were as small children. Being curious, asking questions, stopping to look at the dew drops on the grass, helps all of us to appreciate the beauty of life and begin creating new possibilities.
Inclusivity
Inclusivity
The more unique experiences, backgrounds, and knowledge that comes together in a community, the stronger and more resilient the community. We whole-heartedly welcome differences in opinions, beliefs, identities, backgrounds, and life experiences. If you have a pulse, you are welcome in our community!
Innovation
Innovation
Juicy ideas start with asking questions and become a reality when someone is brave enough to try something new. None of us would be here today without innovation, and we believe all problems can be solved with enough curiosity, creativity, innovation, and collaboration.
Transparency
Transparency
A cornerstone of community building is transparency. We want to be as open, honest, and upfront as we possibly can be with our work, resources, and obstacles. Trust is not something we take lightly, and we vow to do our best to create and maintain the public's trust in our organization. If you have concerns about our transparency, please let us know!
