Salish Soils

Today we begin a new waste mgmt contract with the shíshálh Nation! We'll now be collecting all of the waste, recycling and organics for this community. 🗑️ We're excited to be working with the Nation, and with our partners at @AJM_Disposal to bring this new program to life! ♻️

As an #Indiginous owned and led business, we’d like to offer up some of our thoughts and perspective about what this day means to us, and how we believe we can all contribute to advancing #reconciliation: bit.ly/salishsoils-na… 🧡 #TruthAndReconciliation

Some Friday #gratitude — for the strong community that exists here on the coast, for our wonderful customers that kept us busy throughout the summer, and for the amazing people we get to work with at Salish each day. Nothing but 💚 for you all! (🍏 fresh from our demo garden!)

BIG shout-out to these two! Evie & Billy have been working in our recycle center this summer, helping with questions, keeping things organized and doing it all with a smile. So grateful for their help. If you see them around please help us thank them for all their hard work! 💚🙏

A quick clip of our grinding work in action!

Our grinder is headed home after being up in the #Sechelt Inlet for the past few weeks at Cawley Point. Excited to be working with @TELUS on an exciting new project up there, helping grind up #woodwaste and establish on-site #composting. More on this project to come!
