Customers of floral departments in Raley's Supermarkets — Raley's, Bel Air and Nob Hill stores — have an eco-friendly option when they purchase flowers this fall in the businesses' partnership with Clearwater Nursery and TerraCycle.
Annuals, shipped to the stores in late August, are in upcycled margarine tubs instead of traditional black plastic pots.
Upcycling is reusing a product as something of equal or greater value than its original intent.
The margarine tubs, collected through TerraCycle's Brigade program, can be sent back by consumers to be upcycled again at no charge. For more info, visit

FAIRFIELD — Take a peek behind the bright orange, green or yellow wrapping of some colorful potted kalanchoes at the local Raley’s grocery store and you’ll find a butter container.
It’s Raley’s — and its sister stores, Nob Hill and Bel Air’s — effort to add additional green into the greenery of the floral department.
“The upcycled pots are a more eco-friendly option as they eliminate the need to use virgin plastic,” said Lauren Taylor of Terracycle Inc. in an email.
This fall, shoppers in Raley’s floral departments will see something other than the traditional black pots in which flowers are traditionally sold.
Clearwater Nursery and TerraCycle will offer annuals in “upcycled” margarine tubs in all Raley’s, Nob Hill and Bel Air stores, including Woodland locations. The upcycled pots are a more eco-friendly option as they eliminate the need to use virgin plastic. The plants were shipped to stores in late August.

TerraCycle collected the I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter!, Brummel and Brown, Shedd’s Spread Country Crock and Imperial tubs through its Brigade program.
With support from its partners, such as Unilever, TerraCycle pays all postage and awards two points per unit of packaging which can be put toward charity gifts or converted to money for a charity of the collector’s choice.
