Worn poppies should be disposed of respectfully, as they symbolize remembrance for those who served in the military. The best practice is to return them to a local Poppy Appeal representative or a veterans' organization, where they can be properly disposed of. If that's not possible, you can bury the poppy in a garden or place it in a compost bin, allowing it to return to the earth. Avoid throwing it in the trash, as this can be seen as disrespectful.
