Southland Books & Cafe and The Bird and the Book are excited to partner with Keep Blount Beautiful on the Glass Waste Diversion Program! Funded by the Arconic Foundation, the Glass Waste Diversion Program aims to make better use of glass waste created at local restaurants and bars that would normally end up in the landfill.
Through this program, KBB will provide the missing link between the Southland fam and the Blount County Recycling Center where glass is pulverized and used in local projects.
Rest assured that each bottle at Southland Books & Cafe and The Bird and The Book used to make your craft cocktail, pour your glass of wine, hold your cold beer or serve up your tasty sodas will be recycled. To learn more, visit KeepBlountBeautiful.org
