Composting

Why compost?

Almost half of what we put in our landfills as waste can be recycled by composting. Items like most food scraps, yard trimmings, and paper can be turned into compost.

There are lots of good reasons for each of us to compost.

  • Saves money by creating fertilizer for plants
  • Improves the soil
  • Reduces our impact on the environment

When you add compost to your garden not only does it fertilize your plants, but it feeds the soil a diverse number of nutrients and microorganisms to help further enrich it.
