I am sure glad I called before I collected my Stash and drove over there, SO, Now what do I do. I thinkif they are going to say they collect them , then all Whole Food Stores should participate in the program. If they are going to say they work with Earth 911 to help the planet and then do not do what they say! Then they are lying! Should they get away with this. NO! Now, I am more frustrated than before! FURIOUS I AM! Cyndi Well, I just called the Only Whole Foods Store in the Birmingham, AL area and they do NOT Participate.

I have been looking for way to long for a place to send these. I can drive my HUGE STASH about 35 miles or so to a store I have never been it. GREAT NEWS! Maybe I can collect for my neighborhood and make a trip monthly, can you also do that? I hope we can all work together on this, HURRAY for Whole Foods!

For those of us who have basic recycling resources through local waste management, how do we recycle #6 and styrofoam? For those leaders in the recycling community, what do with do with all this stuff that can be recycled but we don't know where to take it? It's a an issue for those of us who are trying to change our lifestyles, especially to teach our children, because it takes an entire room to store these recyclable items. This is precious living space; and without a place to take some of plastic, I'm not sure what to do. Thank you. Thanks for the article.
