Today is Veteran’s Day and we wanted to give a big thanks to all those that have served in our country’s military.

Fungi are unsung the heroes of composting. They are hard workers, unique contributors, and most of all, a whole lot of fun!

Divert organic material from the landfill and add rich nutrient value during the fall season all in one step.

Don't be a ghoul and put them in plastic, add them to your compost bin to be repurposed. Even if you're not a member, we can stop by on the route for a one time pick up. We'll take your pumpkins too! 

Don’t stop composting just because summer is ending. Not only will compost bins be cleaner with cooler weather and more carbon material, there is plenty of material that can find its way back into the earth with your help.

Here are some tips to keep pests and smells down in your compost bin between pickups.

It’s heating up and and lawns are thriving. Order a larger bin for all your grass clippings and yard debris…

Our Eco-business highlight of the month is also one of our longest customers. Imagine Nation Brewing has made an impressive effort even through the pandemic to divert organic waste from the local landfill. We had the opportunity meet brew guru Sean, who walked us through the brew-to-bin process. Every new batch of beers will have a yeast byproduct that instead of being wasted in the trash, is being saved in green bins and hauled to add into a nutrient rich compost.

In the natural world, nothing goes to waste. Plants and animals may die and decay, but the nutrients are reused to support regrowth and new life. In the human world, this is not always the case. The cycle is stopped when our waste is combined and sequestered into a landfill. Even in our beautiful city of Missoula, it is estimated that yard and food waste alone make up 28% of material in the landfill.
