school TerraCycle Stonyfield Include USA
TerraCycle proves the saying that, “Someone’s trash is someone else’s treasure” by upcycling consumer waste into useful, new products. The company’s most recent effort is a vegetable growing kit for kids, made from used Stonyfield yogurt cups and filled with TerraCycle’s famous Worm Poop (plant food made from biological waste). The cups come from Terracycle’s Stonyfield Yogurt Brigade, a collection program that pays schools and non-profits for every used cup they collect. The paperboard tray that holds the cups together is infused with the seeds needed to start the plants. When kids are finished with the kits, they can send the cups back to TerraCycle to be reused again.
