Leigh Williams is a wife and mom of two school-aged girls who lives in Cary, NC. She started moving “toward zero waste” in September of 2015 after reading Bea Johnson’s book Zero Waste Home. Bea’s single jar of trash a year for a family of four didn’t seem possible for Leigh’s family of four but she knew she could do better and was inspired to try.
Megan Holler, a social worker by training, is a wife and mom of two elementary school-aged children who lives in Cary, NC. She started down the “toward zero waste” path after seeing all the extra waste children’s products can generate. From there it was a slippery slope to reducing, reusing, recycling, and letting rot, whenever, and wherever, possible. Megan loves sharing zero waste ideas and concepts, including the range of options that exists, to family, friends, neighbors, and anyone else who will listen!
