The Rich Earth Institute (recently featured in the New York Times!) is launching a new urine recycling hub in Rockingham and we are partnering with them to celebrate! Join Rich Earth and the Nature Museum at the Bellows Falls Fish Ladder on Saturday, August 6 from 11 am - 4 pm for a day of fun and learning about urine recycling - and how you can get involved.

Human urine contains a wealth of vital plant nutrients. When we flush these precious elements downstream, they contribute to nutrient pollution, harmful algal blooms, and mass fish kills.  Instead, by collecting your urine (or liquid gold), your “waste” can become a valuable resource. With your help, Rich Earth can provide pasteurized urine as a sustainable fertilizer for local farms.  See our website to learn more and be sure to visit on the 6th to help kick off the new local initiative.
