I found this web site were in Pennsylvania they take gypsum dry wall board and recycle it to make gypsum for the use of gardens and farms. http://www.usagypsum.com/category/1.aspx

Very Cool. Wish some of the garden centers around here would start stocking some of that "Green" Gypsum.

How do they remove the bad things that are in the paint (like lead)? There is a place here that shreds up wallboard for agricultural gypsum, but I've always been kind of afraid to use it. Does anyone know???

Organic farms aren't permitted to use recycled wall board due to the glues & fire retardant additives. I can't say that I know of the supposed effects.
