About the project

We are going to be addressing excessive waste material from the cafeteria.

The Steps

(1) performing a waste audit in the cafeteria to figure out what the scale of our system needs to be (2) buying compost containers (3) explaining the project and its aims to the student body and the faculty (4) storing bulking materials for the winter (5) aerating the bins regularly (6) applying mature compost to garden

Why we‘re doing it

Scraps will become compost (used to maintain the student garden).
