REGULAR GARDEN COMPOST BINS

  1. At home: Collect Food Scraps in a small bin. Many people line it with a brown paper bag or newspaper to make it easier to clean. As you add your food scraps, cover with shredded nonglossy paper, paper towels. Covering helps prevent fruit flies and a stinky mess later.
    1. See Kompost Kids Kitchen Flyer 2025 and What’s in and Out 
  2. At the compost site, Find the bin labeled ADD HERE. Empty out your contribution into the bin and adequately cover with the BROWN SOURCE on site (usually wood chips). You can also bring your own brown source like nonglossy shredded paper, untreated sawdust, straw/haw, or leaves.
  3. Please remember to take any trash with you.
  4. If there are any issues with the site or suggestions you may have to improve our system, please email: compost@kompostkids.com
  5. We are all volunteers and depend on help from the community to make this program work. This is a COMMUNITY compost site!
