How we serve YOU
Food Scrap
Collections
We provide the containers, collections and expertise to get you composting in the kitchen and the cafeteria. We offer rolling carts and small dumpsters depending on your needs. Training for staff is included in our service.
Educational Resources
Food Sharing &
Food Recovery
We've developed a free resource guide to engage staff and students on food waste reduction. It includes links to curriculum resources for all grade levels to connect what's going on in the cafeteria to the classroom.
Making sure that food can be eaten is more important than composting. We work with food recovery agencies in all of our service areas and can you connect you to their important services. Additionally, we can provide guidance on how to set up food sharing in your cafeteria.
Compliance with State Laws
Commercial Organics Laws in states like Connecticut and Massachusetts require compliance for schools that generate 1/2 ton per week or more of food waste. Hiring Blue Earth Compost will make sure that you are in line with state requirements.
Food Waste Reduction Guide
We've put the expertise from our years of experience helping schools reduce food waste into a free guide. Our Food Waste Reduction Guide seeks to fill the knowledge gap and pass on the best practices, while also directing the reader to additional resources in their community and beyond.
