Empty container recycling and unwanted pesticide and animal health medication collections are available from coast to coast. Cleanfarms manages programs for additional materials like bags and other ag plastics in select areas.

That is where Cleanfarms and its partners are different. For the most part, our programs operate on a voluntary basis because Canadian farmers, and the industries that support them, have a long-standing commitment to good stewardship practices.
