Go Urbanite!
Hi all,
One of my favorite building materials is free. Yes, I said free, and it is available literally by the ton just waiting for us to pick it up.
“But wait, there’s more!” The best part is the owners are usually thrilled to let us haul it off. It is affectionately called “urbanite” and is a mixture of broken up and discarded concrete pieces. From sidewalks to pool parts these concrete cast-offs make great flooring or, as I did here at the Urban Farm, stacked from pieces into a nice retaining wall.
In this week’s article, I explore a few different ways that you can create your own urbanite masterpiece.
On a separate note but just as planet-friendly, I have put together a fantastic deal on our RePEaT bamboo utensil set and holder. The cutlery is made from quickly renewable and natural bamboo. The holder is made from recycled pop bottles. Lunchtime has never been so green and our sets are a great complement to your stainless steel lunchbox.
Have a great green day!
Greg
