Friday, February 13th – 10:30 am

130 Main Street, Montpelier, VT 05602

What you'll learn

  • How Ridwell started and where it’s headed
  • How hard-to-recycle items are collected, right from your front door!
  • What everything gets turned into

Plus, the chance to ask questions in an open, welcoming setting

This event includes a live virtual Q&A with Ridwell's founder, alongside conversation with your local host and neighbors.

A growing community making a real difference.

Ridwell started as a small father-and-son project and had growth into a nationwide effort that has helped keep over 38 million pounds of material out of landfills—with full transparency about where materials go and that they become.

Joel lives in Shelburne and has worked professionally on sustainability and waste-related issues. He was first introduced to Ridwell while living in Seattle, where he helped the founder and his son pick up materials from neighbors and bring them to responsible local partners.
