    Despite the rain ive managed to recycle 2 old water butts (originally wine barrels) into planters and planted them up with bushes recycled from an upcoming movie along with the planting of the 1st of 8 trees from the same movie.

    Waste
    Our ability to recycle certain things ebbs and flows based upon many factors. Luckily there are places that accept uncommon things to recycle or dispose of in a less harmful way. What did you find when looking for places to recycle items that can't be recycled in your curbside bin?
