Your guide to green living in Montgomery County, MD |
Looking for fun activities for your kids? Or how about a new wildlife documentary film screening? Or maybe, a workshop on gardening or bike repair? Our calendar features upcoming community events for those who enjoy a mix of outdoors, activism, creativity, and learning. All event submissions are reviewed for relevancy and accuracy and are posted within 24-48 hours Monday-Friday.
M-NCPPC has partnered with the Maryland Department of Agriculture (MDA) for the collection and recycling of empty high-density polyethylene (HDPE #2) plastic containers that once held pesticide, fertilizer, or some paint products (this includes many of the buckets of paint purchased for ballfield lining). Park staff, the public, private industry, and other agencies/organizations are welcome to bring approved HDPE #2 plastic containers for recycling.
This is a great opportunity to reduce waste!
**Please note: HDPE #2 containers are generally accepted in commingled recycling dumpsters as long as they have not contained pesticide, fertilizer, or other hazardous substances.
At a minimum, to be accepted, containers must be:
• Triple-Rinsed
• Free of caps and labels, metal handles removed
• HDPE #2 plastic with this symbol on the container bottom:
DATES: June 14, July 12, August 9, September 13
TIME: 9am-3pm
LOCATION: Green Farm Maintenance Facility, 8301 Turkey Thicket Drive, Gaithersburg MD 20879
