Got a stockpile of plastic bags in your kitchen? MARTIN’S want ’em.

In honor of Earth Day (that’s tomorrow), MARTIN’S is encouraging Richmonders to come by and drop off their unused plastic bags. They will then turn the recycled bags into benches.

MARTIN’S will be donating a total of 50 benches to the Greater Richmond area which will be placed at schools, parks, libraries, fire stations, and green spaces around town.
