A small green plant grows out of rich soilCompost is created by recycling organic materials like food scraps and yard waste into a nutrient-rich soil amendment.
In our region, where soils are often dry and low in organic matter, compost plays an important role in improving soil quality, retaining moisture and supporting plant growth.
Instead of sending these materials to landfills, composting returns valuable nutrients back to the earth.
Got a green cart? Use it to keep food scraps and yard waste out of the trash and put them to better use.
