Newman's Own Organics
Nell Newman launched Newman's Own Organics is 1993. She is responsible for the company's product development and marketing.

The daughter of actors Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, Nell had an early introduction to natural foods. At their rural Connecticut home, the family had a garden, raised chickens, and Nell was taught to cook by her mother, as well as spending many hours fishing with her father. While in college, she continued to experiment in the kitchen, and is still the designated chef when home for family holiday dinners.

Nell's commitment to organic foods and sustainable agriculture led her to convince her father to let her establish an organic division of Newman's Own. She won him over by creating a completely organic Thanksgiving dinner and then suggesting organic food products for the Newman's Own line. "All of Newman's Own products are ones that Dad enjoys, so I develop recipes that he really loves and can be proud of," states Nell. Nell credits her parents, too, with teaching her by example to be socially responsible, politically involved, and philanthropic.

Recycling Program

Mollie Stone's is strongly committed to recycling and reducing the amount of waste we produce. There are many reasons to recycle or reuse products and manufactured goods, and many reasons why we at Mollie Stone's choose to recycle.

Diversion is an important idea. It refers to the concept of diverting usable waste from the trash stream. Through Diversion, we are able to redirect incredible amounts of usable products from the trash flow.

Cardboard - 18 tons per week recycled

18 Tons per week = 936 Tons per year = a staggering 1,872,000 lbs per year. Nearly 2 million pounds of cardboard recycled annually. Now that has impact!

Plastic - 1 ton per month recycled

Plastic is a very light material and requires large volumes to produce measurable weight. One ton of plastic, prior to compacting, will fill the trailer of a 44 foot semi. Now picture the fact that we remove 12 tractor trailer loads of plastic from the trash stream annually!

Mixed Paper - 3/4 ton per month recycled

What we've done is transform the normal use of a compactor into a compactor for organic matter only. Most companies throw all their waste into the compactor, from plastic pickle jars to organic matter such as lettuce, tomatoes and spoiled fruit. We use ours strictly for compost materials, which are basically anything derived from a plant or animal. From the remaining waste, we separate and recycle plastic, glass and cans. Finally, we throw away what we can't reuse or recycle. Imagine if all businesses were to divert 73% of waste!

We also do back hauling of compost materials. At Mollie Stone's, we are excited about our commitment to helping the environment, and making great strides to reduce and recycle as much as we can!
