Recycle Your Unwanted Plant Pots, Trays

Help make a positive impact on the environment and free up space during the plastic pot recycling event that runs from July 24 through July 28. Facilities Operations and Development (FOD) and the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences (CFAES) are teaming up to collect your unwanted plant pots and trays so that they can be recycled. Help keep material out of the landfill and promote sustainable gardening practices like reuse.
