Join the StopWaste Schools Team for our spring Open House at the StopWaste Education Center at the Davis Street Transfer Station in San Leandro. The Open House will feature tours of the garbage pit - the place where garbage goes before heading to the landfill - and activity booths and work sessions to spark your Earth month actions including:
Topic BriefsDespite the decreasing amount of food sent to the landfill, wasted food is still one of the largest components of the waste stream.
