Basic Needs supports sustainable practices throughout our programs.
In our thrift shop, we recycle clothing, shoes, books and electronics.
In our food rescue program, we rescue good, quality food typically routed as waste to our free food pantries. When necessary, we turn to organic recycling for food loss.
At our community garden, we use all organic gardening methods, and compost the weeds and waste to use on the gardens the following year.
We are good stewards of all of our resources, ensuring we are serving the community responsibly.
