Coastal Community Compost
Project @ the
Long Beach Island Consolidated
School District
Angela C. Andersen
Long Beach Township Recycling Coordinator and
Co –author of State Farm Grant
Rocket Composter landed at
EJ 2012
 LBI Consolidated School District received a service
learning grant from State Farm Youth Advisory Board in
2011 in the amount of $28,500
 Purchase Rocket Compost unit
 Purchase/ install fence , modify electric and purchase
carts, buckets and tarps
 Partners in Grant Writing: LBICSD Teacher /LBT
Recycling & Clean Communities Coordinator
 Goal:Student focused project in waste reduction and
community development
What is the rocket
composter?
Coastal Community
Composting vision
 Short Term goal:
Integrate food waste separation/compost within the
school/cafeteria ( and single stream recycling-it’s the
law)
 Long Term Goal: Expand to families, residents,
community ( take food scraps- provide compost)
 Extension of the vegetable garden development, rain
garden installations and fitness clusters
Food Waste- the next
frontier
What is Compost?
 COMPOSTING: the process of turning once living organic
matter into rich soil
 food/yard waste> soil enhancer
 Finished compost is dark brown, crumbly, and smells
like a forest floor
 40% of waste to the landfill is organic ( food, yard)
Ocean County Stats
 Ocean County Landfill, Corp. Solid Waste
 2010-
 Ranging from $ 71.21-$102.65 per ton
 Ocean County Single Stream Recycling
 2010 - 55,235 tons – saved $ 4 million in
tonnage fees
 Ocean County yard waste Compost
Brush- 7048.62 tons ( as of 11/30/11)
Leaves-9876.62 tons ( as of 11/30/11)
Single Stream-reduce –reuse-
recycle –success!
County “yard waste” composting-
everything but kitchen sink ! literally
County vs. Backyard vs.
Rocket Composting
 County: accepts leaves for composting and brush for
wood chips ( which will go in the Rocket)
 Backyard: Kitchen scraps veggie, fruit, coffee, tea, nuts
and yard trimmings ( no meat or bones)
 Rocket: food scraps including leftovers, plate scrapings,
meat, bones, eggs, bread, rice, kitchen scraps
Environmental, Educational
and Economic Benefits
 Reduces school food waste and the expense to haul it to landfill.
 Reduces “carbon footprint” (e.g., less garbage, so less trips to
landfills; e.g., fewer garbage trucks and pickups = less pollution)
 Reduces water use in gardens ( aerated healthy soil) which reduces
stormwater runoff
 Improves community recycling efforts- goal of 50% is not met in
ocean county
 Provides sustainability education and outreach to our students
and community members
 Enhances curriculum with real world learning of eco issues
Sustainable Community
Benefits of Compost
 Scraps from local restaurants- then have farm to table
dinners to benefit LBIPTA
 Compost use: ornamental shrubs at the school and at
community/municipal locations
 Benefits for the land and water: soil conditioner, a
fertilizer, a natural pesticide ( heartier plants)
Increases soil health and drainage, rainwater recharge and
runoff /erosion control**
-The LBI students were taught to separate food waste in the
cafeteria
-Parent volunteers signed up to help them separate food
-Signs were made to show what to what not to compost
-The County was on track to deliver wood chips
The kids and community
welcomed the new project
The teachers and staff were
taking notes
The launch was a success
Then…One month after the
launch
So now what….?
 Is the PTA willing to reintroduce the separation
volunteer list for the cafeteria
 Is the district willing to have cafeteria and custodial
staff reintroduce the project
 Is the board supportive of the short and long term vision
of reducing, reusing and recycling in the district
 Can the teachers integrate these concepts into
curriculum in the current climate
 How much will it cost to revamp project- if anything
 Is funding available- if so where
 If not how does the district give away its property?

Rocket Composter 2015

  • 1. Coastal Community Compost Project @ the Long Beach Island Consolidated School District Angela C. Andersen Long Beach Township Recycling Coordinator and Co –author of State Farm Grant
  • 2. Rocket Composter landed at EJ 2012  LBI Consolidated School District received a service learning grant from State Farm Youth Advisory Board in 2011 in the amount of $28,500  Purchase Rocket Compost unit  Purchase/ install fence , modify electric and purchase carts, buckets and tarps  Partners in Grant Writing: LBICSD Teacher /LBT Recycling & Clean Communities Coordinator  Goal:Student focused project in waste reduction and community development
  • 3. What is the rocket composter?
  • 4. Coastal Community Composting vision  Short Term goal: Integrate food waste separation/compost within the school/cafeteria ( and single stream recycling-it’s the law)  Long Term Goal: Expand to families, residents, community ( take food scraps- provide compost)  Extension of the vegetable garden development, rain garden installations and fitness clusters
  • 5. Food Waste- the next frontier
  • 6. What is Compost?  COMPOSTING: the process of turning once living organic matter into rich soil  food/yard waste> soil enhancer  Finished compost is dark brown, crumbly, and smells like a forest floor  40% of waste to the landfill is organic ( food, yard)
  • 7. Ocean County Stats  Ocean County Landfill, Corp. Solid Waste  2010-  Ranging from $ 71.21-$102.65 per ton  Ocean County Single Stream Recycling  2010 - 55,235 tons – saved $ 4 million in tonnage fees  Ocean County yard waste Compost Brush- 7048.62 tons ( as of 11/30/11) Leaves-9876.62 tons ( as of 11/30/11)
  • 9. County “yard waste” composting- everything but kitchen sink ! literally
  • 10. County vs. Backyard vs. Rocket Composting  County: accepts leaves for composting and brush for wood chips ( which will go in the Rocket)  Backyard: Kitchen scraps veggie, fruit, coffee, tea, nuts and yard trimmings ( no meat or bones)  Rocket: food scraps including leftovers, plate scrapings, meat, bones, eggs, bread, rice, kitchen scraps
  • 11. Environmental, Educational and Economic Benefits  Reduces school food waste and the expense to haul it to landfill.  Reduces “carbon footprint” (e.g., less garbage, so less trips to landfills; e.g., fewer garbage trucks and pickups = less pollution)  Reduces water use in gardens ( aerated healthy soil) which reduces stormwater runoff  Improves community recycling efforts- goal of 50% is not met in ocean county  Provides sustainability education and outreach to our students and community members  Enhances curriculum with real world learning of eco issues
  • 12. Sustainable Community Benefits of Compost  Scraps from local restaurants- then have farm to table dinners to benefit LBIPTA  Compost use: ornamental shrubs at the school and at community/municipal locations  Benefits for the land and water: soil conditioner, a fertilizer, a natural pesticide ( heartier plants) Increases soil health and drainage, rainwater recharge and runoff /erosion control** -The LBI students were taught to separate food waste in the cafeteria -Parent volunteers signed up to help them separate food -Signs were made to show what to what not to compost -The County was on track to deliver wood chips
  • 13. The kids and community welcomed the new project
  • 14. The teachers and staff were taking notes
  • 15. The launch was a success
  • 17. So now what….?  Is the PTA willing to reintroduce the separation volunteer list for the cafeteria  Is the district willing to have cafeteria and custodial staff reintroduce the project  Is the board supportive of the short and long term vision of reducing, reusing and recycling in the district  Can the teachers integrate these concepts into curriculum in the current climate  How much will it cost to revamp project- if anything  Is funding available- if so where  If not how does the district give away its property?

Editor's Notes

  1. The LBICSD is the first school wide food waste compost program in Ocean County, third in New Jersey.
