301 Organics is a leading environmental consulting agency specializing in zero-waste programs and organics recovery/diversion/processing processes for institutions and commercial properties. Since 2016, Senate Bill 1383 has mandated California businesses and municipalities to divert 75% organics (food scraps, landscape trimmings and paper products) from landfills by 2025. We are just a few years away and WAY behind on reaching this milestone. We are helping notable clients such as the Rose Bowl Stadium recruit and train a workforce to sort this valuable material and convert it to compost. Equally as significant, 301 Organics has a partnership with Pasadena Unified School District to help schools reach compliance as well as provide practicum in environmental education as it relates to S.T.E.M. learning in mathematics, biology, geography, and chemistry. The leaders of tomorrow are gaining skills in an emerging field even before they start college. Climate change has graduated to a climate emergency. The San Gabriel Valley Council of Governments, cities, institutions, universities and large event venues are turning to 301 Organics since we offer a sustainable process for the generator of food waste to be the beneficiary of the regenerative product - compost. 301 Organics' solutions improve the vitality and quality of life in the San Gabriel Valley and beyond. We provide workforce development and represent the best of environmental stewardship.

My water conservation company educates homeowners & business owners about saving water & money by upgrading to a weather-based irrigation controller, aka Smart Timer. The EPA reports that over 50% of outdoor watering is WASTED due to over-watering. Now more than ever when everyone is washing hands, showering & taking pre-cautions to stem the spread of COVID-19, I want to offer people a solution that uses science and data to create a customized irrigation program. CHERRY ON TOP: Ask me if your water district provides a rebate because you can be rewarded for being a steward of water use, reclamation & conservation. We can't take for granted how precious this resource is to the well-being of our livelihood.
