Following Chadwick Arboretum’s very successful Spring Plant Sale and Auction, I happen to know that there are approximately 14,000 plastic pots, cell packs, and trays out there that need to be recycled or re-used. There are many materials in our community that can be recycled and kept out of our general trash collection. Join us to reduce this waste and help our planet.

We’ll be partnering with Phoenix Recycling and accepting horticultural plastics such as pots, cell packs, and trays. We’ll also be collecting non-food grade Styrofoam such as the material that your computer or TV is packed in.

We hope to fill a semi-truck with these horticultural plastics as we have in the past. You are also welcome to stand by and take any of these plastics that you might need for your home projects.
