WASTE NOT, LLC is a service to divert household kitchen waste from going to landfills. It is composted at local participating farms. As a client you can receive a bucket of compost monthly to use in your lawn or gardens.
Food waste is the last component in recycling. It makes up nearly 30% of what is in landfills. In landfills it rots and produces methane gas which is the number one contributor to climate change. When composted with the proper amounts of carbon material and oxygen, it makes a beautiful nutrient dense humus that adds life to soil.
