- Three easy ways to recycle textiles <br>
</b>Did you know that a November 2022 law made it illegal to throw your clothing and other textiles away in the trash in Massachusetts? Instead, textiles--which include clothing, footwear, bedding, curtains, and similar items that are clean and dry--must be
donated, repurposed, or resold. Even if your textiles are worn, torn, or stained, most can still be donated to a textile recycling facility. <br>
The Green Communities Committee reminds residents of Easton that they have three easy ways to recycle their textiles:<br>

for free home pickup of three or more bags through a municipal partnership with the town.<br>
2) Drop-off bagged textiles at one of the Bay State Textile bins located on the Easton Public Schools campus. Please close bags tightly; loose textiles may get wet inside the bins, and water is very damaging to donations. Money raised supports extracurricular
activities at the schools.<br>
3) Give away reusable clothing, accessories, bedding, etc using Facebook groups (Gifts of Easton, Buy Nothing) or Freecycle.org, or drop off items in good condition to thrift shops, donate them to charity, or resell your best items directly or via consignment.<span class="oypena"><span style="color:#365B6D">

Town’s HCS Dept. has developed a new program that we are really excited about called the Friendly Caller Program. The purpose of this program is to spread positivity and prevent social isolation. This will be especially important this holiday season! Those
signed up will receive a weekly call from one of our volunteers, where you can share stories or experiences, chat about current events, or just make small talk. This is also a great way to get to know some fellow seniors in town. If you are interested in enrolling
to receive calls, please call Frothingham Hall at 508-230-0690.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></span></span></p>
