Victoria CRD are talking about banning wood from landfill…great idea, as long as we prohibit businesses from burning ‘waste’ wood.  Recycling wood is a workable, profitable business model and check out a British Columbia Recycled Wood Company

Last day for this season on Sunday at Government Street Artisan Market (by the China Town Gates).  This  is Leona’s chance to talk ‘recycling’ to folks from Victoria and out of town and a chance to sell upcycled products.  These products show what happens to all that recycling - no, it doesn’t end up on landfill.

Join us at the BC Women’s Show & Sale on October 3 & 4 (10-5pm) at Pearkes Recreation Centre at Tillicum.

Waterproof Baby Fleece Blanket and Cushion Made From Recycled Plastic

Recycle2shop has been at the Government Street Market in Victoria every Sunday in the summer and sadly we only have 2 more market days to go.  People are fascinated by all our ‘upcycled’ products and totally supportive of recycling.  Our fleece (made from recycled plastic bottles) products elicit amazement and “how does that work?”  We talk recycling - hey,  people are actually giving me permission to rabbit on about the wonders of recycling.

Recycle2shop went to UVIC

Yes, we took the message to GreenStart at UVic, Wednesday and Thursday during their first week of classes.  They were all too poor after buying books to spend on extras so it was all about the message.  Met a passionate recycler from CRD who is engaged in wood recycling (as opposed to burning) and more on that in weeks to come.  If you would like to add your views to the  CRD proposal you have until September 18th.
