Opportunities to Get Involved
Volunteer with us as we divert organic waste from entering the landfill and turn it into an enriching soil amendment! Check out the different composting systems we are testing at the site, including our continuous flow through (CFT) vermicomposting system, aerated static pile (ASP) system, and the classic three-bin system.
You can get involved at our composting site by signing up and volunteering with us on Wednesday mornings or the third Saturday of the month, weather permitting, or by joining our community composting program as a Master Composter. More information on our community composting program can be found on our Master Composters tab this summer.
