We won`t leaf you hanging: Flower pots and trays (aka flats) do NOT go in the recycling. Some garden centers may take them back, but you`ll need to ask before you donate. Splitting plants? 🌱 Be sure to disinfect all pots and trays you give away to make sure you don`t pass along any invasives (like jumping worms and black swallow wort).
Take the guesswork out of recycling: Check RecycleSmartMA.org to see what goes in (and stays out of) your bin.
