Guide to the Good is all about making it easy for people to find local, social, and green choices for purchase and lifestyle.  And we LOVE a good game!

The Zero Waste Festival at the Communautaire de Francophone de Saint Jean on October 15 was a chance to bring green and game together with the Guide to the Good Go Zero Trivia Challenge.

Zero Waste questions and QR codes in English and French were posted throughout the Centre.  Players completed a google form to answer, or visited the Guide to the Good booth. 

It was a hit!  Just ask Nicolai von Oppeln-Bronikowski!  He was the big winner of a Go Zero prize pack worth more than $300!

  • Upcycled decanter bottle from NERRL

  • St. John’s Tool Library Membership

  • Yoga Class from The Lotus Centre
  • $25 Fix from Modern Shoe Hospital
