Thank You Macon Middle School Students

Our "Support the Land Trust not the Land Fill" project wouldn't have been ready for the kick-off date if it weren't for the help of Ms. Susan Steiner's class at Macon Middle School who worked diligently for 45 minutes, tagging the bags and adding the information page. Kate Parkerson with the LTLT staff gave a brief talk about the environmental impact of post-consumer single use bags while the students worked. Thank YOU!
