The Green Team is collecting egg cartons for a project and is asking members to send them to Mrs. Brandal. At their October meeting, the Green Team developed a pledge to encourage reducing waste and promoting cleaner transportation. The November Green Team monthly challenge is to leave fallen leaves in the yard to help backyard animals over the winter and to feed birds, which is a fun family activity but feeding should continue all winter if started. Members can send pictures of their birdfeeders to Mrs. Brandal.
