FREE TIRES!!!!!!!! Community Forklift has free tires available while supplies last. Potatoes are a great vegetable to grow at home because they are relatively easy to plant and can produce a good crop. If you are considering planting this yummy tuber, but do not have enough room in your garden, you can grow them in old tires! Click here to find out how!

Huge truckload of brand-new eco-friendly flooring!!!! Very unusual donation just arrived – a huge truckload of brand-new eco-friendly flooring Wow! We have received pallets and pallets of surplus eco-friendly marmoleum flooring, still in the box. These are true linoleum tiles, like your grandparents might have used in their first kitchen. This means that, unlike vinyl flooring, the tiles are made out of linseed oil and other natural and renewable ingredients. * Won’t off-gas toxic chemicals in your house * very durable and can last for decades * Naturally anti-microbial & anti-static. We received a variety of beautiful colors, too, including charcoal, slate gray, dove blue, a cheerful light yellow, and a nice neutral tan. Find more info on the manufacturer’s website at: http://www.forboflooringna.com/Residential-Flooring/Products/Marmoleum-sheet-tile/ Please come visit us soon, as this will go quickly. And spread the word to your friends and neighborhood listserves - especially if you know someone with chemical sensitivities, allergies, or asthma who is renovating and needs materials that won’t harm them. Community Forklift price: Forbo Marmoleum floor tiles 18? & 19.5? squares for $4 each 13? tiles for $2 each (How does that compare to retail value? Well, our price is $1.52 to $1.77 per square foot. According to our research, you can sometimes find marmoleum tiles on sale at a Forbo distributor for $3.45 per square foot, but the regular retail price can range as high as $$6.25 per square foot – that would be $16 for each large tile!)
