UPDATE 2020-
Unexpectedly home for the summer, hosting a Denim only Drive. June 27, 9-3pm - See you there! To the Recycling Community- After the 2017 season, I made the decision to take a hiatus from holding denim drives in order to graduate high school and head to the University of Cincinnati as a freshmen to study chemical engineering. I left the opportunity open for another person to take on denim recycling while I'm away, and Kimi Floyd stepped up. Kimi and I share the same passion for taking care of our natural resources. Stay tuned, more things coming! :) Thanks - Erek Total Recycled Materials34,101 denim items
