Rudders Seafood Restaurant and Brew Pub, located along the Yarmouth waterfront, is a locally owned restaurant that's created a separation system for waste, organics and recyclables that really works.
Each month Rudder's generates 60 to 70 recycling bags per month and 2,000 to 2,400 lbs of organics that are virtually free of any contaminants. They also run a unique micro brewery, and the mash that's a by-product of brewing is sold to a local farmer to feed to his chickens and pigs. It's a great way to reuse this material and provide savings for the local farmer!
Laura Muise, General Manager, Wanda D'Entremont, Bar Manager and Elaine Cottreau, Prep Manager accepted the Mobius Award for Business of the Year at an award luncheon held at Brightwoood Golf and Country Club in Dartmouth on April 25, 2007.
