Glass Recycling Drop Off
Start collecting your glass! We will be partnering with Glassroots to open a free glass drop-off at the Red Stick Farmers Market at 5th St. and Main St. from 8am-12pm on the last Saturday of every month. Glassroots’ initiative utilizes a six-step method to collect glass bottles and convert them into sand and glass cullet used for coastal restoration and protection, disaster relief, eco-construction, art, and more.
Details:
They accept almost all glass bottles and containers. Please rinse any glass containing a food product (e.g., sauce, vinaigrette) and remove bottle caps and corks. Labels are fine– they ultimately sift them out, so there’s no need to remove them. Learn more about Glassroots and the work they do here: https://www.weareglassroots.org/
