Recycling for the garden, yard art COOS BAY - Black ones, brown ones, short ones, tall ones. Leave it to the folks at the Beaver Hill Disposal Site to figure out a way to flowerpots back to gardeners. Rows upon rows of flowerpots of all sizes are available to gardeners who stop by the Beaver Hill Disposal Site, about 15 miles south of Coos Bay off U.S. Highway 101. The flowerpot recycling program began about three years ago. "It just kind of goes in spurts," said Cheryl Westgaard, the business operations manager. There is one constant, though. The facility could use some volunteers to keep the program going.
