Gardener’s Plastic Pot Swap AND Canning Jar Exchange

Friday, June 19-Wednesday, June 24, 9:00am-6:00pm

Cornell Cooperative Extension of Tompkins County, 615 Willow Avenue, Ithaca NY

 

LEAVE your plastic nursery pots, trays and cell packs IN GOOD CONDITION  (no broken or torn plastic) in the designated area on the east  side of the CCE Parking lot at 615 Willow Ave.  Pots will be sorted by size, so help us out by putting them in the pile with similar sizes!

 

TAKE AWAY as many pots as you can use, too!  Plastic that is left after the event will be taken to a recycler for processing. Recycle your plastic plant containers instead of throwing them away.

 

CANNING JAR SWAP!  Canning jars must be empty, free of debris and in good condition (not broken).  Please bring your canning jars to donate in BOXES, NOT BAGS!  All size canning jars are welcomed, but they must be true canning jars (no mayonnaise or sauce jars, please). Take away as many jars as you can use!

 

The purpose of the swap is to promote reuse of pots and jars.  Gardeners and canners appreciate this opportunity for reusing pots and canning jars.  After June 24th, no more pots or jars will be accepted at Cooperative Extension, however county residents can take these items to the Tompkins County Recycling/Solid Waste Center.  For more information, call Cooperative Extension at 607-272-2292 or visit http://ccetompkins.org/events/2015/06/19/gardeners-pot-swap-recycling-event.
