Hurray! Euless finally made the news for something good! I don't care if it does involve worms, either! Until now, all we've been known for is our love of trees (remember Arbor Daze?), but now we will be known for compost and worms as well. More power to us.
Euless' "compost-ology" program has won us the Municipal Living Award for cities with fewer than 100,000 residents (we're currently sitting at about 53,000). Chicago won for cities with more than 100,000 residents.
Composting bins, thermometers, and spray bottles were given to people in free workshops and school events. Over a hundred pounds of red wiggler worms (who seem to think the compost is yummy) were distributed to residents as well. Their waste assists in enriching soil.
Congratulations to Mayor Mary Lib Saleh, Lori De La Cruz, and all others who helped out! You've made Euless a wonderful, environmentally friendly place to live.
