Schedule

Description

This event offers farmers a no-cost, environmentally safe way to dispose of leftover pesticide products through a licensed contractor. We will have a contractor on site accepting agricultural waste chemicals, and waste tires from the farm will also be accepted for recycling at this event. Farmers and residents may drop off up to 10 automobile/light truck sized tires and up to 2 tractor-sized tires for recycling. If a farmer has additional tires over this limit, the farmer may use the local county drop off site for the county in which they reside.
