Hi Jill,Just a suggestion: many schools support recycling programs, contracts can be made to have the children make the pots and sell them for profit. Then the kids take the money that is used and buy something for their school or use it for field trips. They would be able to make the pots for the community to purchase. You would have to talk to the principal to get this going. It would be a good idea as Spring is just around the corner and many people will be looking for this product and would be willing to support the school. Jacqueline

No, and I did a search, and then thought perhaps I could make some myself
because I didn't find what I was looking for - but that seems like a lot of
work! I would love to have your sources on plastic pots - want some for
hanging strawberries, and some for ornamental pepper plants. I am not
getting tons of them, though.....
