Recycle garden plastic pots for plant credit at Lavocat's Family Greenhouse

Lavocat’s Family Greenhouse, 9855 Heroy Rd, Clarence Center, is open and ready to take garden plastics.  Starting Sunday, May 1, they will take pots, plastic flats, and hanging baskets, but NOT the 4-packs and 6-packs. They pay in plant credit at 20 cents a pound, and will pay for up to 40 pounds per customer. You may take more, and they will recycle the surplus for you. Simply rinse your pots, load them into a bag, and take them to the checkout counter as you are entering the nursery.  Driven both by economic and environmental reasons, they’re able to re-use half of the plastic items they receive, and they send the remainder to a local recycling plant.  If you are a garden club member, you will also receive a 10% discount by showing proof of membership. You can find them online at lavocatsnursery.com, where you’ll find directions and a listing of their plants, or call them at 741-3976.
