Diverting compostables from landfills and incinerators is massively important. Keeping these materials out of landfills has a significant impact on the environment, but in addition composting has the power to reduce the resources used for processing, amend eroding farmland with nutrient rich soil, increase food security through better efficiency within the food system, and promote engagement in our communities.

By signing up for our service, we believe that residents of Cortland County will become more aware of waste, respect food, and engage with their communities not only to decrease their waste contributions but also to build strong connections to solve problems.
