Sustainable Woodstock is seeking volunteers for a WindowDressers (WD) build during the week of October 27-November 2nd!
WD is a nonprofit that brings volunteers together to build insulating window inserts for a participating town's residents. In Woodstock, we are making donation-only inserts for income-sensitive folks in our area.
The households that receive inserts are expected to participate in the Community Build where the inserts are made. However, we also need members of the community to contribute to the effort as well!
What to expect as a volunteer:
Shifts are 4 hours long, and volunteers typically learn one or two simple steps in the insert-building process. You will be trained at the beginning of your shift on how to do your task. Volunteering for multiple shifts is encouraged! Lunch is provided to all Participants.
Not interested in building inserts? Volunteer to bring a lunch dish that serves 8 people on one or more of the days!

Please mark your calendars: Sustainable Woodstock will offer a paper shredding and electronics waste (e-waste) collection event at the Woodstock Union High School & Middle School parking lot on Saturday, October 15, 2022 from 10:00AM-1:00PM. Good Point Recycling will accept your sensitive documents for shredding, as well as used electronics for recycling, such as televisions, computers and monitors, peripherals, printers, telephones, electronic game consoles, handheld electronic devices and stereo equipment. Documents will be collected and then shredded following the event, which will reduce wait times.

Food for the Rest of Us will examine how getting back to the land is tied to other movements such as Black Lives Matter, Idle No More and Times Up. Food for the Rest of Us is a feature film that presents 4 stories of people living life on their own terms, serving as leaders and role models who are lending their voice to the underdog and leading a revolution to a better world, from the ground up!
