♻This weekend! Are you ready for Freecycle Days in Kenora? 🌎

On Saturday, September 5 and Sunday, September 6, place your used but still-good items with a "FREE" sign on the curb or your front walk for others to take. 🌿🧹 Please remember to remove any remaining items from the curbside by 6:00 p.m. on Sunday to help keep our community tidy.

🚶Over Labour Day Weekend, take a stroll through your neighbourhood to find free items!

♻Freecycle Days are more than just an opportunity to tidy up your house or garage. It's a community event that puts the 3rs (reuse, recycle, repurpose) into action. Mark your calendar and join the effort!

🌎♻️Freecycle Days is an initiative brought to you by the City's Sustainability Advisory Committee
