Tips for Recycling

​Banchan leads our connection with the fledgling Puna Precious Plastic (PPP) enterprise, which is learning to recycle locally most disposable plastic. 
​Banchan, and our market on November 12, collected four large bags of plastic, which we delivered to PPP on November 16. There we learned PPP’s current rules:

Plastics should be presorted into types 1, 2, 4 or 5. (3, 6, & 7 are not accepted.)

Glue remaining from soaking off labels is OK for now.
​
No films (bags, wraps, etc.) are allowed, however, if you sort your plastics in separate garbage bags, PPP will keep them in those bags to maintain the separation.

The two photos below show examples of acceptable plastic (“YES”) and unacceptable plastic (“SORRY”). For now, though, shrink wrap, bags, and other films are unacceptable. All items need to be clean and dry!

SNAP accepted by most vendors of cold food.

Customers may convert some of their SNAP balance to market tokens, which some vendors will accept in place of cash. To get these tokens, go to the SNAP manager’s table out front. Look for the SNAP logo on the weekly menu and at vendors tables.
