Thank You!

Whether you compost food scraps with us or use the compost we create, you are part of a shared system that keeps valuable organic material out of the landfill and returns it to local soils. 

In 2025, we reached a major milestone: achieving an annual diversion rate of one million pounds of food scraps kept out of the landfill.

In a region where landfilling is often the default, this reflects thousands of daily choices by households, kitchens, businesses, and institutions to do things differently.

Those choices reduce landfill pressure, restore nutrients to the land, and support healthier soils, cleaner water, and more resilient food systems.

OUR WHY

Grow food not landfills 

Reduce waste and improve soil health

30-40% of household and commercial waste could be composted. We provide easy and accessible organics recycling services, empowering people to compost so we can reduce waste and get vital nutrients and carbon back into local soils.

Craft regenerative quality compost products for growers

Locally made compost reduces the use of fossil fuels and fossil fuel fertilizers, and plastic use from packaged compost that’s shipped from other states. Invest in higher quality products that will contribute to soil regeneration and more nutrient dense food for you and your family.
