Plastic Pot Recycling

Tuesday, May 6, 2008 through Thursday, June 26, 2008

Be an MG Environmentalist! Help us continue to recycle plastic pots, weekday mornings Tues - Thurs, May through June. Go to the volunteer sign up page of the Member's Corner.

Additional Information

Last year, we recycled over 100,000 pounds of pots and trays. The recycling trailers worked very well at the garden centers and this year we have 12 trailers. The pubic will be able to recycle anytime. Trailers will be located at the Garden's Monsanto Center as well as seven other garden centers. We are shooting for 150,000 lbs this year.

Event Location

The pot recycling area is located in the west parking lot of the Monsanto Center at 4500 Shaw Blvd, one block west of the Garden.

Date and Time

This year, we are planning to work Tues, Wednesday and Thursday mornings from 9 to 12 noon to recycling the plastic that has come in from garden centers. Lots of changes for this year to make it easier. Please sign up for a morning shift one or more days. This event takes place every week from May 6th through June 26th
