How It Works
STEP 1: You collect food scraps in your bucket.
STEP 2: Every week, our youth employees take your bucket and replace it with a fresh one.
STEP 3: They deliver your food scraps to our community scale composting site at Filbert Street Community Garden.
STEP 4: Your food scraps are turned into compost!
STEP 5: The compost is used at Filbert Street Community Garden to grow produce.
