Recycle and Raise money for CNPS

Do you have stacks of empty one-gallon cans along the side of your house? Wondering what to do with all those empty pots? You have two options:

1. Bring them to Las Pilitas Nursery in Escondido (www.laspilitas.com) and CNPS gets 10 cents for every pot dropped off. Because so many members have responded to this effort - we have raised almost a thousand dollars. These funds raised go towards education and conservation of native plants and their habitats.

2. Bring them to the Tecolote Nature Center at 5180 Tecolote Rd San Diego, CA 92110,(858) 581-9952. You can stack them neatly to the side of the front door if the nature center is closed. Click here for directions to Tecolote www.sandiego.gov/park-and-recreation/parks/teclte.shtml CNPS will then transport the pots from Tecolote to Las Pilitas.

If you'd like to volunteer to be an "empty pot transporter" - please e-mail info@cnpssd.org

Rules for dropping off pots: this program is for EMPTY one, five, and 15 gallon plastic pots. Ensure there is no trash in your pots and no cracks or tears. If the pots are not useable you can put them out in your curbside recycling.

Thanks to everyone who has dropped off empty pots already!
