Fulfilled Goods is all about reusing and repurposing existing materials vs. tossing them in a landfill. Many of the products in the refillery come in 5 gallon buckets. The empties are usually sent back to their closed-loop partners to clean and reuse, but this time around they are holding on to them for global buckets – a self-watering planter made from 5 gallon buckets.
Join the Fulfilled Goods team and Farmer Tim (the store’s CSA partner*) as he demonstrates how to build a global bucket. You’ll be provided all the supplies you need including composted soil courtesy of Black Earth Composting. Farmer Tim will be bringing a variety of tomato, pepper, and eggplant plants from his greenhouse for you to choose from. You’ll go home with your own self-watering planter ready to go! (or rather, ready to GROW! )
Workshop cost: $35
*Interested in locally grown veggies all summer? There are still spots left in the CSA. ($540 for 20 weeks; pickup on Wednesdays at Fulfilled Goods)
