CleanFARMS is once again collecting unwanted or obsolete pesticides and livestock medications at no cost to Canadian producers.

Starting on September 21, 2016, farmers in the Peace Region can drop off their unwanted and obsolete products at participating agri-retailer locations, to be safely disposed of. Dates for central Alberta locations begin in early October.
