The community compost program offers opportunity for near-by Broome County residents to compost their food scraps, garden, and yard waste. Individuals living in apartments where composting is not permitted or houses with limited backyard space are encouraged to join. After a short training when joining, members will have access to add their compostable materials at any time during the week.
We expect members to gain experience and skills gained as site maintenance will be shared by members and volunteers. We hope that composting will become an activity that members will continue to support beyond this program.

Residents in Broome County are eligible to join the program. Given that there is only one location, the number of participants may be limited as to fit within the capacity of the composting bins. Frequent visitors of the Broome County Regional Farmers Market, Cutler Botanic Garden, and Taste NY store may also be most interested in joining.
