1. NYC Compost?
Compost is a nutrient-rich, dark, crumbly material that helps
improve soil health and provides essential nutrients to plants.
Compost results from the management of the natural
decomposition process that turns the nutrients from once-
living materials into humus, the rich, organic component of
soil.

Sanitation in 1993 to provide compost education and outreach to
NYC residents, nonprofit organizations, and businesses. Most of the
