There will be areas to recycle old TVs, appliances, electronics, eyeglasses and more. For a pricing guide to recycle these items, as well as a  check out this handy flier.

But there will be more than the chance to recycle. Public Works will have free mulch and Redbud seedlings for you to take home, plant and keep the Redbud City tradition growing strong in Columbus. A bluegrass band will be playing to keep you entertained, and a brat fry held to keep you fed as you browse the craft and vendor fair, bake and library book sales.

It is sure to be a blast. We hope to see you there!
