Vendor: Black Earth Compost

Action: 53 - What to do with food scraps?

I was very happy to hear that Wayland Energize Wayland has partnered with Black Earth Compost to provide weekly curbside compost pickup in our town Wayland. Black Earth is the company I turned to when, in September, I had a family party at my house for approximately 70 people to celebrate my son’s marriage. To be kind to the environment, I could either rent dishes etc. or, per suggestion of a good friend, use compostable plates, cups and flatware, which I didn’t even know existed. I turned to Black Earth Compost for advice and they helped every step of the way. They provided links to places where I could buy the compostable items, arranged a special drop off of large compost bins to collect the food scraps, dinnerware, and paper napkins, it all and picked up all of it after the party. No dishes, and zero waste! I had a lot of questions and they promptly answered them all. I was so pleased that I signed up with them for this new weekly curbside pickup program. They provided a small, manageable rolling bin with compostable liner bags that keep the bin clean, and they also gave us compostable plastic liners for our countertop compost jar, all of this making it easy with no mess. This was our first week and everything was picked up promptly. I couldn’t recommend this service more highly.
