Dear Sustainable Tompkins, Here is an idea for a "Local and Sustainable Coupon Book" which could benefit local businesses, non-profit organizations, and Sustainable Tompkins as a whole: Hi Ryan, What you are describing is very similar to the promotions run by BALLE (Business Alliance for Local Living Economies) affiliates when they launch their Buy Local campaigns. The Green Resource Hub is looking into becoming a BALLE affiliate, and we are sending a couple of reps to the national conference in Boston in June. AFCU is helping us with this and they are sending someone as well. So, maybe a local sustainable enterprise coupon book will be in our near future!
