Why Compost?

 

  • Reduce pollution and methane gas. 20% - 30% of garbage sent to landfills is made up of yard waste and food scraps.
  • Save money. When you compost you get free fertilizer and ground conditioner and you don't have to waste time and money buying hazardous chemical fertilizers or bringing the containers (usually made of plastic) to be properly disposed of at the hazardous materials site.
  • Use of this natural fertilizer means less chemicals in ground water. Healthier lawns and gardens for pets and family.
  • Compost helps treat contaminated soil by removing heavy metals and absorbs volatile organic compounds (VOC's).
  • Reduce garbage pick up fees.
  • There are so many things that can be composted… eggshells, coffee grounds and filters, tea bags, hair, dryer lint, newspaper, cardboard, leaves, manure, sawdust, grass clippings, leaves, cornstalks, corn cob, seaweed, lake moss, algae, beverages and wastewater.
