Composting at RAM 💚
In our work to become a more sustainable market, we’re continuing our work with Apple Rabbit Compost with the support of TerraWise Homes! Thanks to TerraWise, our market can continue the work to allow our farmers to sustainably get rid of any waste they may have at the end of the market 💚♻️ “Terrawise Homes is proud to sponsor all composting initiatives at the Riverside Arts Market for the next year. RAM is a hub for local culture, and by helping promote composting, we hope to reduce waste, promote greener lifestyles, and foster a sense of environmental stewardship right here in Jacksonville. Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond our homes - it’s about building a better future for everyone.”
