Customers and stallholders can now ‘do the right thing’ when it comes to recycling, thanks to the new and improved waste management system for the Farmers Market.

Launched on 2 February 2013 in conjunction with the ACT Government and its ACTSmart Business Recycling Program, the new recycling bins will reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill, and is part of the Market’s ongoing commitment to the environment.

In addition to general waste and recycling bins, there will also be organic waste bins, with any organic waste from stallholders to be put towards other Rotary Club of Hall projects (as mulch or compost, for example).
