Thank you,
Deb Viens
If you’re looking for a home for the blue plastic bags your Free Press (or NY Times) comes in, we’ll take them! They are made of the same biodegradable material as the dog poop bags we’ve been paying for. If you want to gather a critical mass and give us a call when you want them picked up, we’d be happy to do so.
Many thanks.
Moira and Penny at East Terrace
