This holiday season, Sustainable Stillwater MN invites our community to rethink the culture of excess and embrace mindful consumerism rooted in sustainability, intention, and connection. True abundance comes not from what we buy, but from the generosity, presence, and shared moments that define this time of year.

As the Executive Director of Sustainable Stillwater MN, I recently had the opportunity to join the EcoFaith group for a fascinating tour of the Ramsey/Washington Recycling & Energy (R&E) Center. Seeing firsthand how our community’s trash is processed was both eye-opening and inspiring.
