Hey Austin, heads up — if you had the City of Austin's Wood Reclamation event penciled in on your June calendar, it's time to grab that eraser. The event has officially been canceled for this month, so you'll need to find another way to put those salvaged wood plans on hold for now.
We know, we know — it's a bummer. These kinds of community resource events are super popular around here, and a lot of folks count on them to responsibly offload materials or score some reclaimed goods. Unfortunately, this one isn't happening in June, so don't show up expecting a pile of free lumber and good vibes.
The good news? Austin is never short on things to do, and this just frees up your weekend for something else entirely. Whether you're hitting a patio on South Congress, catching live music on 6th Street, or exploring one of the city's many green spaces, there's always a reason to get out and enjoy this city we love.
Keep an eye on the City of Austin's official website and social channels for updates on when the Wood Reclamation event might be rescheduled. These programs do come back around, so it's worth staying in the loop if sustainable living and community resources are your thing — and honestly, in Austin, they usually are.
We'll keep you posted as soon as new dates drop. Until then, go find your next favorite Austin hangout spot and make the most of the day!
