Kroger, in partnership with several local organizations, is celebrating Earth Day by encouraging customers to value “A Bag’s Life” – a recycling movement that locates drop-off sites for plastic bags and wraps, including the 215 Kroger stores across its Atlanta Division that will accept customers’ plastic bags between April 16 – 22.

In honor of Earth Day 2012, the Richland Soil and Water Conservation District (RSWCD) are offering a series of conservation-themed awards to Richland County students, teachers, and administrators.
