Recycling at the Missoula Hempfest

September 13th, 2009

hempfest-recycleThis was my first year at the Missoula Hempfest, and it was really fun! I was surprised how many people there were. It was especially nice to see a strong emphasis on recycling.

Each recycling station was decorated with big hand-painted signs. Volunteers sat next to each recycling/garbage station and would point to the right bin with their swords. Usually when I put something in a recycling bin I have all these lingering doubts– “Maybe they don’t take type 42 plastics?” Not at the Hempfest! Recycling here was, well, fun and easy. Thanks, guys!
