Wood Chips Needed for the People’s Apothecary Garden

Hello everyone,

We’ve just added a new path at the PAG and are looking for wood chip donations to fill it. The path is approximately 12 feet long, 3 feet wide, and 1 foot deep.

If anyone has a pile of wood chips to spare, please contact Charlotte atcharlotte@thetisislandnatureconservancy.org

Thank you so much for your help and support,
Charlotte

Recycling and Garbage Notice

A gentle reminder to the community not to bring your garbage and recycling to the marina for disposal. 

We are seeing an increase in mixed recycling being left in our refundable bins, which are only for the use of marina customers. When this happens, a staff member has to go through the bins and pull out everything that isn't refundable and clean and of course we have to pay to have garbage hauled off the island. 

At this time, your non-refundable recycling must be taken to Peerless or Bing's Creek for recycling. 

Thank you for your cooperation.

Their show is on until November 22nd. Prices range from $15 to $100. If, by chance, something seizes your fancy just pay at the restaurant, lift the painting down and take it home with you.
