    Again. I bring home put soil on compost. Rinse baskets-take to recycle center. Sometimes just add to garden. This year she has 15 .

    Good for you K Kid. That is such a waste to toss all that mix into the dump. I always appreciate people dropping their baskets and pots back off when the season is done. I can sort the pots that are re usable and recycle the rest and put any potting mix in one of the high tunnels.

    Lucky you. 15 bargains. Great addition for the compost pile.

    Thank heavens you got those baskets before she tossed them! A terrible waste prevented.
