OSAAT Farm

New Life for Old Items: The OSAAT Farm Reclamation Station

We are proud to partner with OSAAT Farm to host an on-site Reclamation Station. OSAAT (One Step At A Time) is a community-driven farm dedicated to teaching youth and families essential life skills—from drywall patching and small repairs to entrepreneurial handiwork.

How it Works:

Instead of sending reusable items to the landfill, you can donate them to the OSAAT trailer located right here at the facility.

  • Repurpose: Items in need of repair become “learning projects” for youth to develop new trades.
  • Reclaim: Restored items are sold at community garage sales to support local programming.
  • Reduce: Every donation helps keep our wallets full and our landfills small.

Have a large donation? OSAAT Farm may be able to arrange a trailer pick-up for larger items.

About the WRNW Partnership

Established in 1993, this facility was a pioneering joint effort between the RMs of Whitemouth and Reynolds, later joined by the North Whiteshell Provincial Park in 1997. By consolidating 14 outdated dumps into one modern, regulated facility, we have significantly reduced our environmental footprint.

Today, we partner with various stewardship programs to ensure as much material as possible is diverted from the landfill:
