​New District Project

Plastic pollution is a major environmental issue that has been affecting our planet for decades.  Our garden club district can start making a difference by participating in a NexTrex Plastic Recycling Program.

NexTrex® Plastic Bag & Film Recycling Programs
Looking for a project that gives back to your community and helps our planet.   Below is information on how our garden district will participate in a plastic recycling program that benefits the community and repurposes plastic that was destined for the landfills! ​

Trex® is proud to sponsor local recycling programs in communities throughout the country. When our district collects more than 1,000 pounds of plastic refuse in 1 year we will receive a high-performance composite bench donated to our community.
