March on Nelson Litter Pick-Up
Several organizations and Adopt-a-Highway groups take to the roadsides of Nelson County in the spring.  KNB recently cleaned up along route 56 from Lovingston to Shipman.  Thanks to all the volunteers and to the Blue Ridge Chapter of the Sierra Club for hosting a wonderful barbecue after the event.

Plastic Bags - a no-no in recycling containers
The film plastic bags you get at the grocery store are convenient to carry recycling materials to the collection sites, but they contaminate the contents if you put them in the container.  Carry your recyclables in a cardboard box that can also be recycled or in a reuseable container.  These plastic bags can be recycled at the grocery store.
