Compostmodern ME
To those who attended Compostmodern ME on May 9 – thanks for coming! It is our hope that this conference may serve as one of the many local seeds that foster continued dialog and action towards the pursuit of designing more sustainable business and life practices.
And thanks for all the twitter posts! Let’s keep the digital dialog going at #CompostmodernME – or feel free to suggest or design a new venue.
Following are some additional resources to explore.
