NYC Compost Project hosted by Queens Botanical Garden

The NYC Compost Project hosted by Queens Botanical Garden works to rebuild NYC's soils by providing New Yorkers with the knowledge, skills, and opportunities they need to produce and use compost locally. The project is funded and managed by the NYC Department of Sanitation's Bureau of Recycling and Sustainability. 

The QBG Farm & Compost site showcases how to make and use compost to create healthy soil for many living creatures. With our compost bins, one-acre farm, and pollinator habitat, we demonstrate how New Yorkers can divert organic waste and improve urban soils. By working together we are supporting both our soil ecoystem and local community.
