You Can Exchange Plastic Bottles for Free Herbs This Weekend
It's happening tomorrow morning, so set those alarms!
(SPOT.ph) In one way or another, we've all lessened our single-use plastic waste, and in the instance that we can't avoid using plastic, there are many hubs you can donate these plastics to. If you have a growing pile of plastics—e.g. the ones from online deliveries or takeout food packaging and utensils—at home, you can donate it to High Street Harvest in exchange for free herbs and organic compost.

Here's what you need to know about the return of High Street Harvest:
From time to time, Bonifacio Global City announces the comeback of High Street Harvest on its social media platforms. And in the same post as their BGC Weekend Round-Up for the upcoming weekend, they made the announcement of High Street Harvest's return on August 19.
Yes, it's happening this Saturday already. It will be held at the Brown Trellis near Tiger Sugar from 9 a.m. and will be there until supplies last. All the plastic bottles earned at the High Street Harvest will be donated to Green Antz, to be recycled into eco-bricks.
What plastics are accepted at High Street Harvest
According to Bonifacio High Street, you can exchange clean and dry plastic or PET bottles. There is a minimum of one PET bottle for you to have it exchanged for free herbs or compost.
Note: Remember that not all bottles use PET plastic, so make sure to check the bottom of the bottle and look for the number one sign with the recycle symbol surrounding it. Also, it would be better to clean and dry the plastic before donating.
What herbs you can get for free at High Street Harvest
The herbs that are available at High Street Harvest are all freshly harvested from the Bonifacio High Street edible pocket garden. The selection includes basil, tarragon, lemon grass, dill, Thai basil, rosemary, and thyme. It is advised to bring your own bag because High Street Harvest will not provide plastic bags to store the free herbs.
If you're a plantito or plantita, you can opt to get the free compost instead of the herbs. This helps in giving nutrients to your plants.
