Master Gardener & Master Recyclers will be Recycling Christmas Trees, Holiday lights and Styrofoam

Please … remove all decorations & tinsel from trees. Wreaths must be free of ribbon, wire and decorations. No flocked or artificial trees will be accepted.

Styrofoam must be clean, dry, free of all tape and labels. Items that do not comply cannot be accepted.
Steps to Recycle Your Styrofoam:

3. Place Styrofoam Recycling in clear bags.
a. Black or opaque bags will not be accepted

On Saturday, April 23rd, we will plant seeds to celebrate Earth Day (technically, Earth Day is Friday, but everyday should be Earth Day, anyway). Kids of all ages can come and plant the seed of their choice and take them home to nurture. Help them appreciate the earth and feel more connected to nature as they watch their seed sprout into a plant, with just a bit of care.
Best Family Farms will be partnering with us and will give a free Jack-O-Lantern pumpkin to every child that keeps their plant alive until September! So, bring the family, have some fun, and celebrate what our Earth has to offer.
This is a FREE event.
Come on out to our Cub Cadet Test Drive Experience at The Power Shop on April 30th. We will have lots of mowers to drive so you can pick the perfect one! All Echo, Shindaiwa & Bear Cat equipment will be 20% off for that 1 day only!
KMNT Radio will be live on location with giveaways, include South Sound Speedway tickets and chances to win Kenny Chesney tickets!
We will be serving lunch from 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m..
