It is designed for indoor use to strip paint, remove decals, or bend plastics. It features two temperature settings.

This is great material to add to your gardens, landscaping, or compost piles!

We've emptied the free compostable material out of the container, so it is more accessible. There's a little bit left. You can come get this material -- sawdust, sheep manure and hay -- from the Youth Fair's sheep barn. The pile is in the lot before you enter the transfer station in Centralia. The gates are open Monday through Saturday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:15 p.m. until it's gone.🐑💩

We are all about upcycling, reusing, repurposing, and sharing. Does anyone have tomato cages or other materials that will help out this Nature Nurture Farmacy project?

👩🏽‍🌾Did you have grand plans to garden but it never happened, and you have supplies taking up room in the shed? 🚜Or maybe you aren't a gardener but still want to help our local community/school gardens... Well, here's a way to support them. We need tomato cages or other supplies to keep about a dozen tomato plants in their place🍅

This is great material to add to your compost bins, compost piles or mix into your garden or landscape spots.

Need some extra material to add to your compost bins? We have a 40-yard container of sheep barn stall debris from the Spring Youth Fair a few weeks ago. It is available for free on a first-come, first-served basis. The container is in the parking lot before you enter the transfer station in Centralia at 1411 S. Tower Avenue. You will need to load it yourself from out of the end of the container. The gates will be open during our operating hours: Monday through Saturday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:15 p.m.

Please enter the event on Floral and be prepared to help unload your vehicles quickly so we can keep the line moving!
