Clear out your cupboards and recyle your old boxes of tea. Jasmine Pearl Tea Merchants in NE PDX is offering 20% off any loose leaf tea when you bring in your old boxes of unused tea bags. They’re calling it the Great Tea Swap of 2011. Great idea. I’ll be picking up one of my favorite blends, Jasmine Harmony. Maybe I’ll see you there!

Earth 911
Did you know there are over 50 places to recycle batteries in the Portland area? What about eyeglasses, paint supplies or those old video tapes? The Earth911 website provides one of the best resource directories I’ve seen for recycling and living green. Just put in the item you want to recycle and your zipcode. Up pops a list of sites and links starting with the closest to your area. It’s a national directory so even friends back east and in the south can find help. Donation sites included, too. The website also provides green tips for businesses and lots of reuse and recycle how-to’s. Check it out!
