If you are interested in joining the community compost program or would like additional information, please contact Abigail Pepples ajp382@cornell.edu
We Compost Collective program offers opportunity for near-by Broome County residents to compost their food scraps. The community compost program is perfect for those who want to compost their organic waste but may not have the space, time, or desire to manage their own bin! Members will have access to the compost bin after attending a short orientation training of 10-15 minutes.
Along with having a place to compost, members will gain experience and skills 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!
We Compost @ CCE Broome
Any resident in Broome County is eligible to join the program. If we are approaching our capacity of compost input we may pause new member sign-ups. Frequent visitors of the Broome County Regional Farmers Market, Cutler Botanic Garden, and Taste NY store are greatly encouraged to join!
We Compost Collective can help start and support other composting locations in collaboration with another group or organization. Contact Abigail if your group is interested in hosting a We Compost site to serve your community.
