Green Committee

Please join the CG Green Committee in planting this year’s ESOP Garden! We’ll be planting some old favorites such as tomatoes, jalapeños, and cucumbers, as well as trying out a few new varieties of fruits & veggies.   Drinks and snacks will be provided, but please BYOGG (bring your own gardening gloves!).

A big thank you to everyone who joined CG's Green Committee for our Earth Day Nature Walk today! It was a wonderful opportunity to step away from our desks and into nature at the Elizabeth Fries Ellet Interpretive Trail in Eden Prairie.

With reusable water bottles in hand, we enjoyed a peaceful 0.8-mile walk through the scenic trail, soaking in the sunshine, spring blooms, and even sampling fresh natural spring water straight from the source. It was the perfect way to pause, reflect, and appreciate the planet we all share.

Shoutout to our colleagues in other offices who organized their own local walks—we love seeing the commitment to sustainability across all locations!

Thanks for celebrating Earth Day with us. Let’s carry this spirit forward all year long!

The Eden Prairie office participates in a program called Trex, which encourages us to collect plastic bags for recycling! If we collect 1000lbs of plastic bags in a year, we’ll receive a bench made of recycled plastic for the office!   Unfortunately, we’ve only collected 22lbs of plastic bags for recycling since January 1, 2025.   Help us reach our goal of collecting 500lbs by June 30th! Please bring your plastic bags into the office for recycling; these can be dropped off in the collection bins pictured below, which are in the 1-West and 2-West copy rooms.
