Over 10 cubic yards diverted from landfill!

Published on 13 July 2025 at 09:10

Good morning everyone! Another week of terrific composting done. We collected 137 pounds of kitchen scraps this week. We noticed a lot of cardboard in this pickup which is really helpful for helping break down the kitchen scraps and maintaining the browns : green ratio.

In other news, since GCP started, we have saved over 10 cubic yards of landfill space by diverting kitchen scraps to beautiful, nutrient rich compost.  To give you a visual idea, over the the last 1.5 years we have filled 7 of our giant composting bins.  Filling one of these bins takes a while as each week the level of kitchen scraps drops by between 1/2 and 1 foot as it decomposes.

Thank you all as always and we’ll see you next week!
