Thanks to all who contributed to the success of the 5th Annual Sustainability Expo & Lobo Growers’ Market! Over 70 vendors and thousands of customers enjoyed a gorgeous spring day on Cornell Mall on the day after Earth Day.
UNM Parking & Transportation Services, the Office of Sustainability, and Sustainability Studies Program Growers’ Market Practicum students deserve special recognition for their efforts. And, with the help of Knowaste, we were able to effectively make the expo a no-waste event.
