Contest for Best Green Business at the Olney Farmers Market.  Green Olney is on the lookout for the greenest vendors at the market. We are evaluating our wonderful local businesses on these criteria:

• Provides products in non-plastic bags/containers (recyclable materials)
• Creates products using ingredients from local farms
• Provides discounts for returning containers
• Sets up at market with being “green” in mind (chalkboards to rewrite, QR codes, upcycles, no trash, reusable tablecloths, etc.)
• Uses a limited amount of energy (only electricity when needed, preheated items, etc.)
• Promotes/encourages concepts of reduce, reuse, recycle

We'll be at the Olney Farmers & Artists Market soon, sometime after the Mother's Day opening.
