The document describes 5 activities for reusing salvaged and recycled materials for container gardening projects. The activities involve using old tires, wood, bottles, and containers to plant different vegetables and flowers. Students will work with their parents to design and construct planters out of these materials, including a tire garden, two-level planter, container garden in wooden frames, vertical and horizontal gardens using bottles, and a pyramid garden. The goal is to promote reuse and recycling while teaching students gardening and plant care skills.
