Water when it counts! Water in the morning or in the evening to reduce evaporation. Midday watering wastes water!

Efficient watering keeps plants healthy and saves water all season long.

Community-based sustainable hubs in Seattle ♻️🫶

In order to create a space that truly benefits you, we need to hear your voice!

Our Reuse Commons journey has just begun with our pilot space in Lake City, and a location in South Seattle is in the works (planning phase). Your feedback will directly shape these spaces.

At a foundational level, Reuse Commons spaces are meant to create convenient community destinations for sustainable living through secondhand retail, repair services, classes, and shared resources.

Our survey takes about 10–15 minutes, and you may enter your email at the end for a chance to win one of six $25 gift cards.

📝 Take the Reuse Commons Community Survey: forms.gle/9xJiyT5qbKyjBdSG9

You may also find the survey on reusecommons.org > Menu > Community Survey > Click here to take the survey.

We are incredibly proud to be surrounded by a growing team of community-centered organizations, including NE Seattle and Shoreline Tool Libraries, Furniture Repair Bank, Alexandra Kurhan, Seattle ReCreative Greenwood, and Redyoos. Once we find a few more organizations to join us in the space (application on website), we’ll have official open hours for Reuse Commons Lake City.

Reuse Commons is an initiative of the City of Seattle Government (City of Seattle Government and Seattle Public Utilities), led locally by Seattle REconomy (North) and Furniture Repair Bank (South).

Thank you so much for your support, and we’re looking forward to building these spaces with you!

This year’s FIFA World Cup honored Seattle as the best World Cup venue. We helped ensure everyone experienced a clean city with great water at every moment.

Community and sustainability were at the center of our work during watch parties across Seattle, including efforts like:

• Preventing more than 20,000 single use items with reusable dishware.
• Building terrariums with kids to explore the water cycle.
• Helping over 1,000 fans defend their drains like a goalie.

Thank you to our outreach teams, partners, and community for helping create a welcoming experience for all fans!

Here's how you can help salmon out as they're doing the hard work this season:
• Water early or late and adjust sprinklers with the weather.
• Fix leaks at home. Check toilets for silent leaks, fix dripping faucets and spigots, and watch for sudden bill increases.
• Choose water‑wise plants and let your lawn rest in hot weather.
• Skip the hose and sweep instead, and use car washes that recycle water.
