 Give Plastic Film a Second Life
Plastic Film Outreach Days will be held from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the following Kroger locations:
- Friday, June 13 at Alden Bridge Kroger
- Saturday, June 14 at Cochran’s Crossing Kroger
- Friday, July 11 at Cochran’s Crossing Kroger
- Saturday, July 12 at Alden Bridge Kroger
Plastic bags and film can’t go in your curbside cart, but if they’re clean, dry, and stretchy, they can be dropped off at local stores like H-E-B and Kroger. These materials are recycled into composite lumber used in benches, decks and playgrounds, including those in our parks. Stop by to learn more, see examples of recyclable films, and pick up a free reusable bag while supplies last.
Simple Ways to Save Water in Your Yard
Outdoor watering can make up nearly half of a household’s total water use, but smart strategies can help you save. Collecting rainwater, switching to drip irrigation, watering early and infrequently, and planting drought-tolerant Texas Superstars are all easy ways to reduce waste and keep your yard thriving. Add mulch to retain moisture and maintain your irrigation system to ensure efficient watering. Small changes make a big impact, so start today and conserve every drop.
