Corps on a project to raise consumer awareness regarding waste in our food

and nurseries food grade plastic containers (like yogurt containers) for use as
seedling pots instead of newly manufactured pots “designed” for plants (see the
attached image for an example). We give the pots for free. The impact of
each reused plastic pot is: </p><div style="margin:0in 0in 0in 27pt;line-height:normal">· One pot a local grower
need not purchase.</div><div style="margin:0in 0in 0in 27pt;line-height:normal">· One piece of plastic

Lights Urban Farm for the upcoming summer sale, and we are hoping to find more
participants. Do you know any organizations interested in free pots for
seedlings? </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:106%;margin:0in 0in 8pt">Let me know if you have any questions!</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:106%;margin:0in 0in 8pt">Thanks,</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:106%;margin:0in 0in 8pt">Jonathan</p><div style="margin:0in;line-height:normal"><span>-- </span></div><div style="margin:0in;line-height:normal"><span>Jonathan Jackson</span></div><div style="margin:0in;line-height:normal"><span>(225) 288-2772</span></div><div style="margin:0in;line-height:normal"><span><a href="http://circularsolutions.us/" target="_blank"><span style="color:blue">circularsolutions.us</span></a></span></div><div style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;line-height:107%"> </div></div>Communications mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Communications@chicagocommunitygardens.org" target="_blank">Communications@chicagocommunitygardens.org</a><br><a href="http://chicagocommunitygardens.org/mailman/listinfo/communications_chicagocommunitygardens.org" target="_blank">http://chicagocommunitygardens.org/mailman/listinfo/communications_chicagocommunitygardens.org</a><br></div></blockquote></div><img id="gmail-m_-77727819078808062418C3E6F49-6985-4FBA-A89B-730C380BD01F" src="cid:1796c7c7f3a8c571fa71"></div></div></blockquote></div><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><span style="font-size:small">Jonathan</span></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
