About the event:

Did you know that approximately 85% of textiles in the U.S. end up in landfills each year? As a community, we can donate clothes to help reduce this waste. That’s why this year the BFEC will be hosting its first-ever clothing, plant, and book swap to celebrate Earth Day! Bring any of these items to 9781 Laymon Road from Monday, April 13, through Saturday, April 18th. We ask that clothes be organized by men’s/women’s/unisex and that they do not have any large holes, rips, or stains. Shoes are welcome too! All of the donated items will be available on the 18th for anyone to take for free. We will also have a food truck and children’s activities! Questions? Call 740-427-5051
