What is The Recycling and Rubbish Exhibit?

The Recycling And Rubbish Exhibit (R.A.R.E.) provides FREE educational tours and workshops to Butte County residents of all ages. Our two-part program encourages recycling, composting and re-thinking our trash production by focusing on the 4 Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Rot).

Visit the Exhibit!

We have over twenty hands-on interactive displays covering topics such as:

•    Anatomy of a landfill
•    Composting with worms
•    Electronic and hazardous waste
•    Recycling around the world
•    A six foot tall garbage can
•    A walk-through compost pile and much more!
  

In-Class Workshops:

Follow up compost workshops allow students to learn the importance of composting and how to build and maintain a worm bin to keep in the classroom. Compost workshops are hands-on and provide students with an outlet to practice what they learn at the Exhibit!
