Backyard Composting
Composting can reduce the amount of waste sent to the landfill by one third.

 

 

 

 


• Composting is a natural process where micro-organisms break down organic waste into a soil-like material called humus. Composting helps to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfills and plays an important role in the recovery of a valuable resource. It is estimated that up to one-third of household waste is organic, compostable material.
