I am a huge Powerade drinker. I'm talking 15-30 32 oz bottles a week. I hate throwing them away. If I knew where, I could donate too.

No hooks, just bottoms, seems wasteful not to find a way to repurpose them. Any suggestions DIYers?

That's a great idea!! I picture it like this, keep us posted!
Dog food cans I do not think will be tall enough,once you sink them in the ground.
I am all for recycling but when it comes to tin cans I would not recommend them for use in the garden. They will rust up and become brittle and then that will become a danger in the future when you do your gardening and get cut from rusted metal, which could lead to a terrible infection. I would try to come up with an alternative idea.
Maybe you could use them as molds to make concrete edging.
THANKS
