About us
Each day, Turnip Green takes in an average of 1,000 pounds of donated hard-to-recycle materials and gives them back to community members. We do this through a shopping center, education programming, and studio workshops.
The Creative Reuse Center serves as the heartbeat of our organization. It is where reusable materials are donated, sorted, organized, processed, and redistributed. Those supplies are then made available for you to shop via the Creative Reuse Center with a “pay what you can” pricing model. We want creative materials to be accessible to all!
We offer educational programs and outreach initiatives to schools, libraries, and other community groups. Our curriculum promotes sustainability and environmental learning while giving access to materials and creative experiences.
The Gallery & Artist Marketplace at Turnip Green Creative Reuse showcases the work of artists who transform reclaimed materials into inspiring creations.
Our workshops and studio space provide hands-on opportunities for individuals to engage in creative reuse and learn new skills. The space and tools are available to use to better your art practice and connect with like-minded people.
Our partners work alongside us to advance Turnip Green’s mission and create solutions for diverting waste - together furthering both Middle Tennessee and national sustainability efforts.
