Save the date!!  Spread the word! This year’s community-wide free metal recycling day will take place on Saturday, Oct. 7, from 9:00 -12:00 here at First Parish.  Start gathering your metal! Stoves, pipes, file cabinets, bikes, shelving, grills and lots more will be accepted. There will also be a “free stuff” table with items too good to discard.
