MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
Rutabaga Toy Library
Rutabaga Toy Library offers a zero-waste solution for eco-conscious families by offering toy-sharing and a zero-waste party space for kids’ birthday celebrations. Rutabaga believes that sharing instead of buying new is not only good for the environment, it also helps us build strong communities.
They became a member of Circular Philadelphia because CP’s work dovetails perfectly with Rutabaga Toy Library’s core mission. Their primary gig? Keeping toys out of landfills and challenging the production of disposable toys. Being part of Circular Philadelphia encourages Rutabaga Toy Library to actively contribute to a more sustainable and circular economy.
