Thank you to everyone who joined us for our quarterly member meeting last week!
We started the day with a tour of PCs for People in St. Paul, where we learned about their work responsibly recycling electronics and redistributing donated devices to low-income families and students. After that, we visited Grahn's Upholstery to meet their talented team and hear about their process for transforming and restoring furniture.
The meeting portion of the day was held at PAIKKA, a sustainable event venue in St. Paul. We had folks join us virtually and in person. During the meeting, we shared several updates and announcements:
We were excited to spotlight two member organizations who are doing great work to foster reuse and sharing in their communities:
Space by Space Organizing offers professional organizing services designed to bring clarity, functionality, and calm into every kind of space—from cluttered kitchens to entire homes, retail spaces, and even digital environments. Their team specializes in helping clients create order and flow in their surroundings, so that every space serves a purpose and supports a more peaceful way of living.
Twin Cities Library of Things, is a 100% volunteer-run, member-supported community resource that allows people to borrow instead of buy. From tools and kitchen appliances to party supplies and camping gear, the library offers a growing collection of useful and fun items aimed at reducing waste, saving money, and cutting down on household clutter.
Members who missed the meeting or want to revisit any of the content can log into their Reuse Minnesota member account, go to the Members menu, and click on Member Meetings to access the Zoom recording, presentations, and more.
Our next gathering will be our annual meeting in November. Stay tuned for more details!
