Almost 20% of household garbage is yard and food waste that can be
diverted from landfills and turned into rich compost. Compost helps
lawns and gardens thrive. Residents will use less water and fertilizer
and could pay less on their trash bill just by composting.
For more information, residents can visit www.bouldercountyrecycles.net
under the Composting page and see a newly refreshed webpage educating
residents about how to get started, where to purchase bins, what to do
with finished compost, and where to find compost demonstration gardens!
