Ray’s Reusables Composting Program Launch
Ray’s Reusables — a sustainable household goods store offering refillable cleaning and body care products in Northern Liberties— will launch a new public compost drop-off program in partnership with Bennett Compost. With the addition of this partnership, Ray’s Reusables will evolve beyond just sustainable retail into an all-in-one eco-hub. The launch event will include:
-
Launch of the community compost drop-off program
-
A free gift of house made mini soap bar with purchase for the first 30 customers
-
Pop ups by local vendors with connections to the shop or waste reduction

(10-2 pm) KC Co – KC Co. makes bold, joy-filled accessories for anyone who likes their style a little fun or funky. Think bold and earthy colors, unexpected combinations, geometric forms, and thoughtful details—all influenced by a background in graphic design. Each piece is intentional and slow-made in small batches right here in NoLibs. Our connection: The owner, Kim, is one of the shop’s earliest customers!
-
(1-4 pm) Juicebox Workshop – Using salvaged textiles, found objects, pigments and thread, artist Julie Woodard creates impressionistic landscapes, multimedia installations, functional sculptures, and wearable pieces that convey her passion for nature, memory, and creative reuse. Our connection: Julie and Ray met vending years ago! You can spot Ray in one of Julie’s pieces of wearable art (a beloved cap) often.

(12pm-sellout) 30 Percent Patisserie– A play on the common bubble tea question “how sweet would you like it? 100%, 50%, 30%”, 30 Percent Patisserie believes that when desserts are too sweet, you lose the ability to appreciate the true flavors of the ingredients. Trained in pastry in Japan, Hsin-Hui creates sweets representing the ‘less sweet’ philosophy from bubble tea shops. Our connection: Hsin-Hui often recycles flexible plastic bags from the baking process during our flexible plastics week.
