Overview

Compost is a nutrient-rich soil amendment and fertilizer created through the natural decomposition of organic matter, like food scraps, yard waste, and other biodegradable materials. While composting occurs naturally in the environment, it does produce a valuable material that can be beneficially reused.

How is it Generated?

Compost can be made from a variety of organic materials, including food waste, yard trimmings, paper, and cardboard. The process is an important part of a sustainable waste management system that promotes environmental sustainability, soil health, plant growth, and carbon sequestration. Through composting, a business can reduce its environmental impact while promoting sustainable waste management practices when appropriate.

Beneficial Reuse

Compost adds nutrients to soil and adjusts soil structure to improve water retention, draining, and overall plant growth.
