West Marin Compost

Organics Recycling: Good for the environment

Marin residents can drop off yard debris at West Marin Compost to avoid landfilling. Organic matter in landfills creates methane, a potent greenhouse gas. As compost or mulch it is a valuable, much needed soil amendment that creates healthy soils:

• Improve soil structure
• Conserve water
• Reduce erosion
• Increase CEC (Cation Exchange Capacity)
• Optimized nutrient management
• Sequester carbon (carbon farming/gardening)

Nicasio Blend is Organic. More to follow soon.

Reuse your vegetable scraps at home and recycle. Take a walk through the West Marin Compost site to learn more about organics recycling.
