The Environment

Sustainable MDI

Acadia Cottages is committed to preserving our environment. We are taking the following initiatives to help reduce our footprint:


Eco-friendly products

We use all-natural eco-friendly cleaning products:

• Vinegar
• Baking soda
• Oil Soap
• Natural dish liquid
• Sulfate-free soap and conditioning shampoo
• 85-100% post consumer recycled facial, toilet paper, and paper towels
• Natural shower and tub cleaner
• Hydrogen peroxide cleaners
• Natural laundry detergent


Conservation

In order to conserve water, we will change sheets weekly and towels as requested. Linens are always changed between guests.


We use refillable bottles for shampoo, hand soap and dish soap.


Recycling

We sort trash from recycling according to our town’s guidelines:

• Recycle: glass, plastic, and aluminum containers; cardboard; and paper goods. Returnable items may be placed in a separate recycle bin for SPCA donation.
