- In early June, we collected dozens of trashbags of plastic at TiLT
- Wed June 10 ten folks gathered for a workshop at TiLT, and we constructed two huge wall panels
- Friday June 12: we trucked the panels, tons more plastic, and all other materials up to Daniel Herrera’s RYNO site in Questa
and are about half way finished with our shed project–and we NEED MORE PLASTIC!Please share this email with people and institutions you trust–we are expanding our circle, wanting more trustworthy sources to drop off CLEAN, WASHED smashed plastic at TiLT.
For anyone who wants to make a drop off, here is the process:
1) text or email Todd so we can arrange a date and time. 575 770 8681
2) we are seeking CLEAN, WASHED smashed plastic of most any kind–bags included
3) Drop it only in sturdy large garbage bags labeled with your name and phone number.
Thanks for your help! We’re gonna build again Friday June 19, and we want more PLASTIC!! 🙂
