Gulf Restoration Network

After lamenting the presence of cypress mulch all the way up in Northern New Jersey, Casey and her friends pretended to do some shopping. When they arrived at the counter with bags of cypress mulch, they began asking the clerk some uncomfortable questions about the sustainability of cypress mulch.

When she couldn't answer, Casey got on the phone with the manager to let him know that cypress mulch is destroying the Gulf Coast. She actually convinced him to come talk to her in person about it, and she was able to hand off the letter explaining our position and have a educational conversation with him. By that time the photographer had been asked to stop taking pictures, but not before they'd gotten some good ones.
