BOULDER - Alfalfa's Market and the nonprofit Center for ReSource Conservation are among the local companies and groups that have plans to celebrate Earth Day, Monday, April 22.
Boulder-based Alfalfa's plans to kick off a beefed-up recycling program on Wednesday, April 17, in honor of Earth Day, the company said in a press statement. Customers can recycle used baby food pouches, Tom's of Maine personal care items and No. 4 plastic bags at the store under the new program.
