This is the types of plastic you can currently put in your recycling wheelie bin in Wealden: www.wealden.gov.uk/recycling-and-waste/how-does-your-service-work/recycling-service-what-goes-in-...

Don't crowborough community centre offer a recycling facility for tetra packaging?

Plastic cannot easily be recycled and less than 10% gets recycled - mixed plastic particularly pvc negate any such efforts and the whole idea that you can is unachievable

Tonnes of edible food gets thrown away each day …

…2.9 million potatoes

…1 million bananas

…2.1 million carrots

So what does this mean for you and your household?  Plan your meals and shopping.  Choose to buy what food you need.  And only cook the food that you know will get eaten.

Work-out how much your family eats each meal.  Dont over cook and thereby waste food.  Weigh or measure your ingredients.  For example an average-sized serving of rice weighs 75g (dry).

Want to fight food waste and live more sustainability?  Then join the hundreds of other people in Crowborough: https://greentransitioncrowborough.org.uk/membership-form/

The Tescos one is great - it is large and often emptied!! They also have a make up recycling box tucked away in the toiletries isle!! Well done!!!

Have you ever thought of growing your own vegetables?

Have you ever thought of growing your own vegetables?🌱Did you know, Crowborough Town Council has three allotment sites across the town?

Now is the perfect time of year to get growing, so if you live in the parish and you’ve been thinking of having an allotment, why not give our allotment team a call on 01892 652 907 or message us here.

There is currently a waiting list for our Pilmer and Herne allotment sites but plots are currently available at Owlsbury.

Allotments are not only a great space to grow your own, but they’re also an opportunity to meet like-minded people, they help to keep you fit, they're good for the environment and are a haven for wildlife!

Plus, this year we are also running an allotment competition across the three council run sites, so it’s a great time to get involved 😊

To find out more, visit our website: www.crowboroughtowncouncil.gov.uk/ser.../allotments/
