About the event
CRC is partnering with the Rich Earth Institute on nutrient recycling education in CT, funded by the Long Island Sound Stewardship Fund.
Join the Rich Earth Institute and Wesleyan University for a workshop on the paradigm-shifting practice of peecycling: reclaiming human "waste" as a resource to support local farms, prevent pollution, and conserve clean water. We’ll cover Rich Earth’s unique community-scale urine nutrient recycling program, insights from over a decade of research, and spotlights from the global movement for circular sanitation. Together, we’ll reimagine waste and explore strategies for transforming our food and sanitation systems.
Participants are invited to stay after the workshop to explore RECLAIM, a Swedish-designed board game where players collaborate to create their own nutrient futures.
Workshop: 4-5 PM
Reclaim Board Game: 5-6 PM
Parking is on-street on High or Court St. or in the parking lot just after the Middlesex Transition Academy on the left side of Court St. Accessible parking is available at 276 Court St.
