In today's world, it's cool to be "Green". As a member of the green industry, Pender Nursery is continuing our efforts to make this a greener world.

At Pender Nursery we are starting a recycling program for our used pots. We will be working with Blue Ridge Plastics who will be accepting our used pots. It will save us from taking up extra space in the dumpster, which costs us money, and the plastic will not end up in a landfill, but into products that contain recycled material.

Representatives from Blue Ridge Plastics came to the nursery for a tour and checked out our pot pile. Almost everything we have will work. Blue Ridge Plastics processes Post-Industrial and Post-Consumer plastic scrap at its plant in Eden NC. Blue Ridge specializes in the grinding and washing of any olefin (ethylenes andf propylenes) to produce clean, extruder-ready regrinds.

So join Pender Nursery in making this a greener, cleaner world. Recycle!
