Celebrate the contributions of works from local students submitted for the Tiburon Painted Bins Project.
By placing compost bins with children's artwork in parks and other public areas, Painted Bins is preventing food waste from going to the landfill, and greenhouse gases from going into the atmosphere, while educating people about the importance of composting.
QR codes on the Painted Bins provide information about food waste, composting and climate change, thereby educating the public about sustainability.
