Making Recycled Ocean Plastic Plant Pots – LIVE demos on the quayside in Falmouth, Cornwall, UK
Updated: Feb 7
Attending the Falmouth International Sea Shanty Festival this summer was an absolute pleasure. Clean Ocean Sailing invited us, one of the charities we support, to do our first LIVE demo event. We got to show off our recycled ocean plastic plant pots and make them on the quayside in Falmouth, Cornwall, UK. ‘Clean Ocean Sailing’ clean our coasts sustainably under sail and do outreach programs around Cornwall. With 65 000 visitors, it was great to finally get our pots in front of people and get feedback on our products! We did a workshop demonstrating how we collect abandoned ocean waste, clean, process, and shred the material. I made my plant pots by hand using the injection machine, and moulds LIVE on the quayside for thousands of ocean lovers and pirates.
