Come help us reduce waste and give old books some new love! We're holding a book swap at the two Staten Island Greenmarket locations on September 12th. We invite folks to bring us their old books and take any books that have been dropped off by others! For free!
Volunteers will help weigh, sort, and organize books. They will also help us talk to folks about the Stop 'N' Swap program and other activities with the Office Recycling Outreach and Education.
Some refreshments from the Greenmarket will be provided!
ONE BLOCK FROM THE FERRY!

Mission Statement
Our mission is to help New Yorkers increase the amount of recyclables diverted from the waste stream by providing education and resources for recycling, waste prevention, materials reuse and composting. We work intensively on a community-by-community basis in all five boroughs, offering free building waste audits and trainings for tenants, landlords and supers. We are also working to provide special waste collections such as textiles, electronics and compost in our targeted areas, as well as central locations citywide.
Description
